Hocktide celebrates get underway this morning
It's Hocktide day in Hungerford which is the only place in the country that still celebrates the pagan tradition going back 650 years.
It starts when the Town Crier summons the 'Commoners' of the town to the Hocktide Court, held at the town hall, while two florally decorated 'Tutti Men' - accompanied by around six Tutti Girls - visit local homes to collect kisses from each lady of the house.
