Annual Publicans Walk
- 5 August 2012 11:54186138I dont have any info about this but The Lions Club hold this every year. Didnt know it was on today until I saw this colourful group parading down the seafront with much jollity.
I just captured the first few here..there were more guys.
Is that Ross Miller in there in the mix !?

But coming back later on my motorbike it wasnt clear but I could have sworn I saw young Phil Eyden wrestling manfully with a shark !!
I dont know who was winning but the shark was on top...!
Alas I didnt get a picture of Phil.
All great colourful fun and as I remember for charity too.

- 5 August 2012 16:46186151lol!! Phil glad you were able to beat off the mammal..you had a heck of a struggle going there for a while...
here is another crop from the earlier group. Love this guys hair...looks like mine, but he's able to take his off at night!!
All good fun! John Goodwin used to be involved in this as I remember, I think Im remembering that right..didnt see him about..
Come in JHG where are you...email: dover7@msn.com - 5 August 2012 16:59186152Ah yes, top chaps. That was the Drewdrop. They came as the Scooby Doo gang, looked brilliant. Also taking part was The Endeavor as pirates, White Horse as something to do with the sea and The Carriers Arms as St. Trinians.
