Bristol Hannover Council

** An enthusiastic group of members and friends met to celebrate Rosenmontag, final celebrations before the privations of Lent, in the old style on February 20 at the Black Swan in Westbury-on-Trym.

Wearing funny hats, and in one case a wig, listening to and joining in singing Karnevalsmusik, we all had a very enjoyable time (see pictures).

The plus this year was being able to watch the Karneval processions in both Köln and Düsseldorf on satellite TV, which made it all much more real and colourful, and we are grateful to the pub staff for setting it up for us.
