This was my favourite hymn in the May Processions we took part in also in Liverpool, banjoman- Holy Rosary, Aintree, in the 60s.

We all wore our white dresses and followed the statue of Mary, but strewing petals was reserved for the June processions for the Sacred Heart- I don't suppose we could get rose petals in May. I was never chosen to be a 'strewer'- that was the ultimate ambition. (I don't suppose I have used that word for at least forty years.)

Always remember lovely weather- I think only one time we processed round the school hall when it was raining :)
