The weather was good for both days, not too hot and not too much rain. Just a very occasional shower which didn’t stop the 1,000’s of visitors to the festival having a very enjoyable time browsing the exhibits organised by the Worthing Lions. It was fantastic to see the faces of the Lions and willing volunteers which didn’t stop smiling all day, despite some of them working very long hours. I was in awe of the generosity of the visitors to the event, with contributions being dropped into to my collecting bucket as I walked along the seafront and The Steyne.
Did you see the Worthing Lions Lion? He was everywhere, speaking to kids and bringing a smile to everyone’s faces. Here he is, being tamed by the Worthing Town Crier, Bob Smytherman (Don’t tell anyone, but the Lion is actually a she!!! With our very own Lion Marlene Tincknell being inside the lion suit)
