Sunday 10th May 2009 saw me passing through Covent Garden, for the
34th annual May Fayre, which also celebrated Mr. Punch's 347th birthday!
This is the famous landmark, the 'Punch & Judy' pub, which cements the local 'puppet' connections.
And here's the reason why:
The event was held in the churchyard of the 'Actors Church'
The Puppet Festival was organised by this organisation.
This is Salvo the clown.

Around Aalst
Some more snaps from the Belgian town of Aalst, which I visited briefly for a few hours in November 2008.
I can't recall what the buildings were though!
This old pub sign was above a bar that hosted this club.
So it said in the window, it was closed when I was passing!
I've not heard of him, but a famous Belgian painter apparently.
Belgian royalty remembered...
This was the train station.
