Half the population seemed to be in on it.
Sometimes it's an annual event, celebrating Maypole Removal Day, children's end of term day, or a religious holiday maybe.
And it was always the case that you'd come across a pub on just about every mountain. But of late it seems that the pub-on-mountain business is booming as never before. The increase in leisure time and in prosperity means there are armies of hikers and mountain bikers criss-crossing the hillsides, and partaking of fine alcoholic lunches, washed down by big slabs of breads, cheeses, and all kinds of meats and relishes.
And they all have resident (or maybe roving) musicians ready to entertain the crowds. It's rather wonderful really!
Like musos everywhere, they're very attentive to the ladies.
