You made me laugh Niki ... thanks...why do you that?? I thought that is for carnival period!!!


This is a 'may pole' where people dress up and hold on to coloured ribbons dancing around the pole (no more rude comments please :wink:) for May Day celebrations.

Believe it or not, this is taken very seriously! :lol:

I remember doing this myself when I was little.

Niki I am sorry if I offended you...I take it serious as well...but why you do that on May Day? Is like celebration of the Spring?

I used to do it a lot when I was younger as well...and to be honest I used do that in nursery school with my children when I used to teach back home...is not that bad to have some fun and to be a child for a while...right?

You think thats bad. Our form teacher, in my junior school was not only the deputy head mistress but also a country dancing teacher. Instead of playing rounders or football, we danced every P.E lesson. Any music I hear with the traditional "TADA" start, reminds me of.....Heel toe heel toe-one-two-three,heel toe heel toe one-two-three. :lol:

Lena not at all, you would never offend me. :)

The first day of the month of May is known as May Day. It is the time of year when warmer weather begins and flowers and trees start to blossom. It is a time of love and romance, when people celebrate the coming of summer with lots of different customs that are expressions of joy and hope after a long winter. A May Queen is crowned with flowers to add to the festival.
