Bo'ness Fair parade
We had quite a long wait for it to start, which we spent imagining how these horses would get down the Wynd backwards...
Queen's champion
Mayor, other dignities and the woman who crowned the Queen.
Queen
Ex-Queen
Queen of the Flower Girls
Flower Girls from L's school
Ladies in Waiting (I think)
Fairies
I noted, when we were in Linlithgow on Saturday, that this float was also entered into Linlithgow Marches
Deanburn School
Abba?
Kinneil Primary School (L's School)
Their theme was Summer of '69
Yabba dabba doo
Blackness School (only 40-odd pupils, so this is the whole school)
Bo'ness Public (for Karamina!)
St Mary's School
I think I missed Grange School
Sambalistic - the world's palest Brazillians

Bo'ness Fair - the Arches
There will probably be more from my phone, but meantime...
Queen's Arch.
The Hippodrome in Bo'ness is Scotland's oldest purpose built cinema. It reopened this year. The theme for Deanburn Primary School's arches this year as Wizard of Oz.
There was a parade of shops opposite
And a Double Decker Bus
Queen's Champion - pity about the trees
Sword Bearer
Last Year's Queen
Queen of the Fairies
On the side of the Queen's house (painted by pupils at a school in another town)
The school
Other arches
At one point, L tried to show a visiting friend round a corner. "There's nothing to see there", said the friend. "Actually," said I, "there's a giant pair of Ruby Slippers"
