Hello and welcome to Holiday a Day, your daily dose of Holidays, festivals, celebrations and remembrances from around the world.
I’m Jeffrey Johnson
On July 25th 2014 we celebrate
Ebernoe Horn Fair
In the small town Ebernoe Sussex, England is a tradition 100s of years old though it had gone into a dormant period and restarted in the mid 1800s. A cricket match is played and a town fair is held, complete with cake, tea and beer stalls plus bouncy castles and a hot air balloon. Towards the end of the match the batter with the highest score (though I am not even sure what that means, cricket confuses me) get a set of horns from the sheep that has been roasting all day and will be served at the fair.
You can find a full write up about the day from someone who actually attended last years at http://www.talesfromahappyhouse.com/2013/07/ebernoe-horn-fair.html
