Does someone know if sharrow festival is taking place today?

It was today but it will rain, it will be postponed until next 19th but ...any news?

 

Thanks

Bit late now, but yes it was cancelled due to the unseasonable weather.

 

It's now going to be held on the 19th, all other details remain the same.

It's great and small people love it.

I know the weather is horrible and dull and cold but is it still on today Sat (19th) ? Least it might cheer us up a bit after the weather, snow and the fire in the church/mosque ...
