  3. Fastnacht & Fußball – Royal Shrovetide Football

    Fastnacht, Karneval, Fasching … die fünfte Jahreszeit hat in Deutschland viele Namen. Dass das öffentliche Leben für mehrere Tage zugunsten einer ausgelassenen Massenbelustigung stillsteht, ist keine Seltenheit. In Ashbourne bei Manchester geschieht an diesen Tagen etwas Ähnliches – und doch ganz anderes: Dort heißt die Massenbelustigung schlicht „Football“.

    Royal Shrovetide […]

  4. #Solar #DoubleStandards:

    A local living in #Ashbourne had to remove the solar panels
    bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derb from her listed building otherwise she would be jailed, yet it was fine to put them on one of the most historic buildings in England: telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2

    That's not fair :(

    One rule for the elite, another for everyone else....

    Edit: She lives in Ashbourne, not Wirksworth, sorry!

  5. #Upards about halfway to #Sturston now, and it's proper dark. It'll only take one break away to get it to the goal...
    But #Downards could still snatch it!

    Green on the left shows the turn-up starting point, red is where we are now. Sturston goal is the heart on the right.

    "This is where the hug has ended up."

    So, North of the Henmore Brook, just east of the playing fields but into actual countryside. Still #Upards with the upper hand

  7. Well, last I heard the ball was still in the park. It might have made it to the rugby fields but then headed back to the brook. But, with darkness setting in, it's closer to #Sturston than #Clifton

  8. We're in the pond now, open water swimming and heading to #Sturston. #Upards are in charge here... the crowds are heading to the top of the pond in the park. It's going to be tricky for #Downards to turn this one around

    The ball is still missing...
    It seems it is still under the culvert - this is a view from the Dig Street end.

    The shout of "heave" keeps emantating from the culvert every now and again.

  10. It looks like everyone's getting wet now: The people in the river (the hug still seems stuck under Shaw Croft car park) and the rest of #Ashbourne is getting rained on waiting for it to emerge. I think I'd head to the pub until the ball comes out.

  11. This is not what the #Downards need. The ball seems to be going up stream to the park and people are waiting for the hug to come out from the bridge on Park Road
    #Ashbourne #Shrovetide #shrovetide2024 #RoyalShrovetide2024

  12. And it's back in the river, under the bridge. It is possible that the hug could take the ball all the way up the river, under the tunnel and out into the park. If that happens, it's advantage #Upards

    Blue line shows possible route into the park along the underground section of the Henmore Brook... it does happen.

    Ball is still under the bridge on Dig Street though.

  13. Finally a change. The ball breaks from the hug in the river, heads "Up" the brook back to Dig Street, then thrown vertically up to the bridge to street level.

    Momentum swings to the #Upards

  14. Approximate route of the ball so far. Currently in the brook at the back of the Coach and Horses.
