Carnaval Del Pueblo 2007

Sorry if this is a repeat (I did look through the first five pages or so put didn't see anything).

Anyone else going to the Carnaval del Pueblo tomorrow in Burgess Par?. I don't usually go but then that's because I usually go to Colombia instead! But as that's not happening this year, it'll have to do as a substitute!

I'm sure some PBH folk will be there.

I will be wearing a novelty t-shirt (hmmm that won't narrow it down), and a Colombian football hat (hmm again doesn't narrow it down). And how will I recognise the rest of you?!

Oh no that's such a shame, on so gorgeous a day, hope you feel better soon.

Did any other PBH peeps go? I was the guy with the flag hanging in front of his face obviously :p

It was a good turn out and good music, and even little Shakira from Britain Got Talent was there jaja!

Ah yes I seen the video of little shakira, que linda!

Glad you guys had a good time, I am not sure if CK would have gone? But I wouldn't have recognized her there anyway! Maybe next time...

yes!!! I dont know why...its so nice out, i have spent the nastiest two nights ever and dont feel like going out...sore throat, dry cough, temperature...Im a mess. I dont like Rugby Mona, I just spent Wed-Thur in Old Trafford and I HATE football. Bf and I needed detox, so we thought Rugby would be fun. We are tennis babies though...

Little Shakira

Me and my friend Al. My t-shirt says "Necisito una Colombiana con un pan grande". Somebody told me it has a double meaning but I don't get it :p

Despite all the photographers it didn't seem to get much attention in the press, even the local papers!

There is an official website here: http://www.carnavaldelpueblo.co.uk/

They are still displaying 2006 photos though
