Scortcher !.
The locals have decamped 4 miles up in the hills, to celebrate 1st of May.
There's an oxbow in the river, that they normally dam and use as a swimming pool.
Could be shallow, this year, though.
Family picnics in the shade of the nearby trees, music, dancing and BBQ .
Around the village, there are scarecrows , many taking the P out of local celebs and politicos.
Alas too hot and dry for us to walk.
We'll be in the shade, with a fan and cold drinks.
