Man of Stratford upon Avon

As you may have noticed Shakespeare is having a bit of a do this year it being the 400th celebration of his death. A bit morbid I know but this weekend also celebrates his birth as he was born and died on the same date.

Stratford has been preparing the town for tomorrow's parade including erecting many flagpoles on Henley Street and Bridge Street, the flags to be unfurled tomorrow. I know from previous years trying to get a decent photo on the day is difficult with the thousands of locals and visitors getting in the way, so I'm sneaking one in early taken down Bridge Street.

Considering the weather were having at the moment, this could be a poster for the play The Winter's Tale.

Thanks to hildasrose for suggesting this challenge.
