Yesterday I went to follow Fowlers Troop and the Deptford Jack in the Green for their May Day parade. Here you can see Morris dancers and musicians with Jack in the distance at one end of Deptford High Street. It was a lovely day and great fun. The event takes place every year and is so popular that I was asked not to share information about it on my events listing beforehand in case too many people turned up. The organisers can't cope with huge crowds, so limited attendance to those who live locally or have been before.
I also took a short video, which I shared to Instagram. You can find me there @starzalucya
On each of my Pagan Eye posts, I show a photo that I find interesting, with a few words about it. If you want to send me a photo for a Pagan Eye post, please email it to badwitch1234@gmail.com Let me know what the photo shows and whether you want your name mentioned or not. For copyright reasons, the photo must be one you have taken yourself and you must confirm that you are submitting it for A Bad Witch's Blog.
