NUMBERS may have been down a little but spirits were not quelled by the adverse weather conditions for Sunday afternoon’s carnival procession at the Larmer Tree Festival.

The theme this year was the united colours of Larmer Tree, and children and adults took part in one of many workshops that took place over the three days of the festival, held in the grounds of the Larmer Tree gardens, Tollard Royal at the weekend.

Though the grounds were muddy, the colourful procession managed to get around without any mishaps and fun was had by all to the lively musical accompaniment of the Magic Drum Orchestra, Mother Ukers, Sambatastic and Inta Africa.
