I'm pretty certain the theme is simply "the sea" — although there were some odd entries (like a very well-done "Transformer," which, since it didn't transform into anything sea-related, I didn't include). Thanks for enjoying this and not getting bored.

Being there among the sounds and smells must have been truly exhilarating.<br />I had to enlarge a number of these pics so as to appreciate the 'detail' to the full, and they did not disappoint. I bet there were any number of sore heads the morning after - and maybe some sore elsewheres too.<br />I was wondering if there's a different theme each year but the way you've headed this post I guess not.<br />Thanks for giving us such a generous glimpse of this remarkable, brilliant event.Raybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424095016313843883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-59273295997510121582014-06-24T01:39:08.607+02:002014-06-24T01:39:08.607+02:00Holy be jolly, what a parade!
