The town of Padstow in north Cornwall celebrates May Day each year with its famous 'Obby 'Oss Festival [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%27Obby_%27Oss_festival]. Two rival factions, the Old Oss (red livery) and the Blue Ribbon Oss (blue livery). A travelling fairground is one of the attractions and this splendid lorry contains generators to power the rides.
