Hi Seneca
A town crier is a person who proclaims the news in the town centre, for everyone to hear. Is was a very honourable profession in the old days, a bit like a newsreader on the streets..., before we had TV or Radio. I love to see these traditions kept alive in some of our towns and cities,...just wonderful.:super
