Talking to Mum this morning she said it was Ricky Week, the annual celebration held in Rickmansworth, the town where I was brought up.
The start of the week is always marked by a parade, which as you can see from this video of last years, can be a bit of a washout – having said that even though it’s a decade or so since I’ve been to the parade, still looks much the same as it did years ago.
If you want to see a bit more of Rickmansworth town centre, there is a nice little sequence of clips from around the town on YouTube here the main difference now being that the station car park is now a big Watirose store.
