Festive Fenland Fun

Happy Christmas to all.

And don't worry if your holidays turn out to be a bit short on peculiar fun: you can alway head for the Fens in January, for the Whittlesea Straw Bear Festival, where they celebrate the day after Plough Monday by taking a haystack for a walk.

What great pictures! Though there is something terrifying about that creature!
