It's May Bank Holiday, so of course Canalway Cavalcade is on at Little Venice. It was a lovely afternoon for being out of doors,among all the crowds thronging the pathways around the basin and along the canal. Lots of boats, many gaily decorated; stalls selling all sorts of things from jumble to cheeses; English folk music, and a generally happy atmosphere.
And talking of cheese, the stall where I bought all those delicious cheeses last year was there again, so I stocked up with some more, which will very soon go. They're in all sorts of interesting flavours that you can't normally get, and if you buy several you get a discount.
Tea and a cake from the tea bar on one of the boats added to the day; there's something about having afternoon tea sitting on a boat on the canal.
