Hastings Traditional Jack In The Green 2025


Outings

Saturday - Arrival at All Saints Hall, giant erection, lunch then shake down stroll and meet & greet Tristan Sadones
Sunday - Walk to the net sheds to meet with the Hastings Giants, astound and amaze children and Morris dancers. Dancing on The Stade with the Hastings giants
Monday - Grand Parade, starting at the net sheds and ending at West Hill.

Weather

The Weather in Hastings is always the weather, however this year it was always warm, hardly damp at all with a bit of a breeze on Monday. 

Incidents

Well... we did have one over confident porter trying to spin outside St Clements church - luckily he is a strong lad and managed to catch the near tumble. Memo to all giant porters (whichever giant) don't spin on steep slopes.

Modifications/Repairs

Nathandriel had a fresh coat of paint and a new set of lips before he set off to Hastings. He also had the old vacuum cleaner tubes that join lengths of his frame together replaced with shiny new, thicker, aluminium tube. The last lot endured 40 years of abuse - the new tubes should last a lot longer.
