Bill took charge of the REALBrighton Parade entry, supervising the application of glittery RB logos on sensational chests. That over, he then joined us on the the march and took some fabulous photos of people along the route - averting his gaze to the preposterously enormous lollipop (with hilarious consequences) that had suddenly become part of our walking tableau.

If that wasn't enough, it was a quick wade into the park, wristband at the ready, to get some great shots of this year's 8,000 capacity dance tent.
