| His latest triumph came at Blackpool's annual town crier competition where he beat 20 other criers. |
| Plans for the competition are going well, but more volunteers are needed to put up visiting criers in their homes for a couple of nights. |
| The criers will be judged on volume, clarity, diction, inflection and dignity. |
| A feature of the competition saw Peterborough City Council's environmental control department measuring criers ' voices with a decimeter. |
| The congregation included town councillors, criers and representatives of several local organisations. |
| Sometime between 1 and 2pm on April 24, we would come along and one of the criers would do a cry about that person's business in rhyme. |
