If we invited Höchstadt and Aurry to send a delegation to our parade then it would be very rude not to issue a similar invitation another town closer to home we twinned with back 50 odd years ago (presumably the junket budget didnt streach as far in those days).

Especially since I hear that a lot of people there are very big into parading !
