Handsworth Floral Fete
Pug dogs versus bonnie babies - who will be 'best in show' at the Handsworth floral fete?
Overview
The sun's out in Handsworth, Birmingham, and the park is awash with giant white marquees for a charming community event. Surprisingly, there aren't many flowers on offer - Topical Budget's cameraman clearly preferred to capture a parade of bouncing bonnie babies, pug dogs and other prize pooches. Look out, too, for a lovely line in cloche hats, sported by the proud mothers.
