Morris Dancing and a Carnival Procession, Diss, Norfolk - 17th June 2012

It's the annual trundle of vintage tractors and other random vehicles through the streets of Diss. We manage to watch about an hour of the carnival plus the Morris dancing that preceded it before Fred gets bored and wants to go home.
