Recently spent a few days with friends at a festival in Mallorca,great fun as it was the St Antoni festival lots of bon-fires around the town on the Sunday evening. Monday was the main event with the blessing of peoples animals outside the local church everything from Horses,Dogs,Cats,Rabbits,Ferrets,Parrots,Goldfish to a flock of sheep came past.
The afternoon most of the town walked up into the hills behind the town to eat and drink free red wine supplied by the town council! A tree had been cut down and stripped of its branches, which was to be dragged back into town taking many hours,all the time locals were letting of fireworks(no health and safety here thankfully!)where it was erected and the locals tried to climb to the top of it to win a cash prize,we sat in a local bar and watched all the mayhem go on around us great fun.
