Family's old hen-party tradition on busy city centre street

Crowds watched on as an excited bride-to-be carried out an old family tradition on a busy city centre street.

Bride-to-be Holly Weir travelled from Scotland to Liverpool with her hen party this weekend for an extra special event. Her celebration was kickstarted on the busiest street in Liverpool, with an old Scottish family tradition.

Holly, holding hands with her mother Ailsa and Maid of Honour Vicky Wetton, jumped over a "chanty", traditionally a chamber pot/potty, three times outside of Primark on Church Street. This was filled with "ribald and risqué" items as well as salt and baby items, to "wish her well" on her married life.
