I love the hustle and bustle of Notting Hill Carnival. Every year it's like going to a festival...but for free, and without all the tent and travel hassle! This year, due to the gloomy state of the weather, it was a little more crowded than usual on the Sunday, as people knew it would be raining on the Monday. Nevertheless, it was still fun with music, drinks, food and vibrant colours galore.
This year, I used a cheap, Boots 27 exposure disposable camera. I usually go for the Kodak 39 exposure, but I didn't have time to order it from Amazon. However, this Boots camera did the job - and did the job pretty well!

My key pieces of advice for carnival are:
1. Bring cash only - and not too much.
2. Keep your phone in a deep pocket (e.g. jeans or shorts)
3. I wouldn't recommend bringing a bag as it gets extremely busy and it could:
a) make it harder for you to walk through large crowds
and
b) there could be pick-pockets lurking...

4. Don't bother with digital cameras, they could get damaged easily. Disposables are fun and cheap!
Here are a few snaps from my Carnival experiences from over the last few years. It's London's biggest Summer event - don't miss out!
The dates for Notting Hill Carnival 2016 should be the 27th and 28th of August.
