AFTER seeing the Daily Echo article on Swanage carnival last week, an Echo reader got in touch to ask if we could do the same for Poole.
Robert Burchill of Poole said: “I saw the pictures you [The Daily Echo] ran on Swanage carnival and thought it would be lovely to see the same from Poole”.
“We’ve seen pictures of the carnival before but not through the years. Not to my recollection anyway.”
“Me and my family and have watched the procession numerous times and some of the extended family have even been a part of it!”
Society of Poole Men provided a party of 'puritans' to entertain those still afloat during the water events of Poole Carnival in 1982
