Vaisakhi Celebrations in Woolwich

Ramgarhia Association Gurdwara, Woolwich. Sat 9 April 2011
 
 People watch respectfully as the Guru Granth Sahib is place on the float

 

 

 

 Some sit on open lorries for the procession and join the singing of the divine hymns

 Children who go to the Sikh classes also take part in the procession

 
 


The Nagara - a giant drum - leads the procession 

 

The mayor watches as the float is made ready for the procession to start 

 

 

Quite a large crowd has gathered to take part 

 

 

Unfortunately I had to leave shortly after 2.30 when the procession looked as if it was just about to start.
