On the way to the start of the (not very popular) procession...
And then, by this point, we hadn't actually started the rosary...
It's when you meet the people at the start of the procession coming back after walking right around the Domaine that you realise that quite a few people do, actually, still go on processions... and remember that we were in the front end of the middle section...
My knee was playing up because of the damp weather, so I went and sat down at the outskirts of the procession, which wasn't the best position from which to take photos...
Each of those little dots of light is a separate candle, and lots of people didn't have candles...
And, at the end...
Fr. Tim has one of the most impressive photos of the (non-existent) procession on his Flickr page...

Dear Mac. Welcome back to Blighty. I do think you're being a bit presumptious, when implying the Procession was well attended by Processionees. I think the Tablet is/was quite right (as always). What you observed was, obviously, one or two avid Processionees. The rest were, indubitably, photographers and Press. One really must keep a perspective. The Tablet does.
