I HAD great fun when I went along to Weymouth’s Carnival. The wonderful weather meant there were so many people about to enjoy all the fun, which included the crowning of the new Carnival Queen, live music, beach sports, a food festival and a tug-of-war contest, the carnival procession and a firework spectacular to finish.

As you can see from these pictures, I made lots of new friends and even managed to win a cuddly Minion toy after trying my luck at one of the stalls.
