As you may not know, I live in a small town in Devon called Torrington. Every year for over 100 years now, Torrington has celebrated a tradition called Mayfair. It is a long weekend that holds a series of events such as the crowning of the May Queen and Carnival queen (my sister!), primary school children's traditional may pole dance and various other activities that surround the town. On the Saturday, there's the carnival, which is a beautiful precession of various funny and cute floats from local people.
It's a lovely weekend and gives the people of Torrington and my school a chance to bond and come together! It is also quite well known for its drinking, dancing, late nights and fun fair!
Over the past year, my friendship group has expanded from just my school. My bestfriends are from a neighbouring school a little farther out from Torrington, but to make sure they didn't miss out we invited all of them along too.
Right now it is Monday and I am bloody shattered. My voice has gone completely and I'm still feeling it from Saturday night...I had an epic weekend and wanted to share a few pics with you guys to give you a glimpse of how good it was! Thanks to everyone who made my weekend amazing!
This is my gorgeous sister on her crowning evening, she made a stunning queen!
Dancing with Leah's dad on Thursday night!
Very tired and well...
You can understand why...this is pretty self explanatory.

Selfie on the Waltzers! Saturday night was crazy.
I didn't get many photos as I was having such a good time, but I hope you like these few! Yet another amazing weekend with my bestfriends. :)
Xoxo
