Overseen, Overheard: Best Parade Ever

Overseen and heard, Dublin, July 2013:


Running an errand, I walked slap into this parade, which was led by the Garda band:


Which reminded me of the parade in Flight of the Doves (sadly no longer on Youtube, but it's amazing: Gardai marching, a Guinness bus, comely maidens waving flags, people on bicycles - yes, Irish people could rock a St Patrick's Day Parade c. 1971) so clearly I was charmed.
