because we are about to lead the local carnival procession yet again! It takes place in narrow streets with balloon waving kids, this year three marching bands and two groups on trailers playing live, and numerous floats including a dancing cake...Even worse was a steam lorry which hissed and spat at you..
Chocx got a bit agitated half way through, not because of the crowds, but because he has to walk so slowly stopping every few yards whilst the walkers catch up.
It says something about his temperament that he copes with this doesn't it...
