New Morris Side! - Cotswold......
Yes, that's the one with white shirts and baldricks and bells and sticks and hankerchiefs!
Set up by a few people, on new year's day, this year, watching Sheffield City Morris

(well, alright that's them in drag in their daughters' Sciorra Irish dancing clothes!), but I knew the husband of one of the people who set it up, who I met AGES ago, at the folk day a the V and A museum, which was a blast. And we share the same name!
I'd heard about "William Morris" from a friend, and we learnt two Adderbury dances today. Goddesses, I'm so pleased with myself, at telling myself, I would pick this dancing lark up again with no trouble. And we in the middle, remembered the three times, everyone forgot, to do double swings and clash sticks. I can STILL JUMP and I CAN STILL CAPER DECENTLY, wiht great leaps, when I have enough breath! This is exercise I like, even though it still gets a bit hot and agh for me. Still, there was a self defence class upstairs, with a rather handsome instructor. Who smiled at me, when he came in - and we were waiting to see who else was turning up - probably due to the makeup, I had on. Stilll...................!!!!!
So doing nicely, slowly, so far, Thank Ye!!!!!!!!! :)
