Freedom
Today was the day to go and get my hair trimmed and coloured. When I got there Sharon, my hairdresser told me I was late! I begged to differ! Turned out she had written down 9 AM in the book, and 10 AM on my card. I would not have booked it for so early, especially as there could have been a chance I'd be at work until midnight the night before!
Fortunately she could still do my hair and it does look much better now!
Many of the streets in town were cordoned off for "Freedom" parade. I assumed it must have been for Pride Month which is February in Lincoln.
No - it was another military event!
I took some photos of the parade since it's not something that happens every day. (Not that Lincoln and the county in general are short of military events - far from it!) It was a homecoming parade for 2nd Battalion the Royal Anglican Regiment, known as The Poachers. They had been granted freedom of the city in 1946, and chose it to mark their return from deployment as UN peacekeepers in Mali, W. Africa.
