Being part of Jeremy Deller's work of art 'Procession' which kicked off the Manchester International Festival was really good. The Ramblers and other local walking groups walked behind Ed Hall's inspiring banner. The various floats and banner groups represented many aspects of Mancumian life and culture including Brass Bands, a Fish and Chip float, the Big Issue, Historical Events which happened in Manchester. The photos hopefully give some idea of parts of Procession.
