It was the late May bank holiday weekend which meant that it was time for the Luton Carnival.  As per the last few years, the carnival procession took a circular route around Wardown Park, starting and ending on the New Bedford Road.  This year I positioned myself near the start rather than half-way round as I had done in previous years.  Besides meaning there was less waiting for the procession to arrive, it also meant that the various groups were a bit closer together and they hadn’t had the time to spread out along the route.
