Notting Hill Carnival

The late August bank holiday weekend is with us again and that means traffic chaos on the M25 and the Notting Hill Carnival hitting the streets of London. This is Europe's largest street party, originally a Trinidadian shindig, featuring floats, steel bands, fantastic costumes and maidens in various states of undress and overdress. The Metropolitan Police has spent August rounding up known troublemakers. Operation Razorback collared 101 criminals, seized knives, firearms, crack cocaine and cannabis and confiscated £64,000 in cash (CLICK). Party poopers! The kiddie parade is on Sunday, the adult parade on Monday. Click the title link for details.
