Mad Jack's Morris did it again. They hosted a great seaside weekend.

Môrrigan
chose Sunday for her very first public outing 'though it was a little too gusty. She suffered a few teething troubles; which were fixed with a couple of hours' head-scratching, and an hour's work always a good ratio. She was ready for the big parade on Monday and she made it all the way up to the castle! A terrific start to a Giant's career.
The main parade on Monday passed off well and all the giants met a great reception as their exhausted crews staggered in through the castle gate.
After due celebration and ceremony Jack-in-the-Green was slain and the spirit of summer leapt free.
