I did the green mud in July. Rather pathetically compared to the German folks who were spreading it everywhere, and all over one another. Maybe a bit too intimately for me.

But I haven't been in Arillas ever without having a go, and my record stands. I won't have anybody to criticise me at the end of October, and nobody will be there to take the picture. But I will do it anyway, just to keep up the record. And secretly enjoy it.....

Yet another aspect of my favourite place on earth.

Hi
Its amazing how these threads go on.  Viv started this one in 2004 and its still running.  She was new to green mud then, but I think she knows all about it now.
I've never indulged in a green mud session myself but have had lots of fun watching other people completely cover themselves in the stuff.  Some of them go to lots of trouble, gathering bits of the cliff, then pounding the clay in a pot to the right consistency before applying it to themselves or more often to someone else.  After all its much easier to apply it to someone else than it is to reach all those place round your back!
Lots of people (they often seem to be the ones speaking German) take photographs of themselves in the mud covered state.
Thankfully everyone seems keen to wash it all off in the sea before returning to the village.
Best wishes
Pat

Personally Tony, I think you are looking a bit pasty in your pic...

Would that be a Cornish Pasty Jo?
