Well, how are we going to make a morris team out of this lot?

On the stage
We generally prefer not to dance on stages as morris should be
done amongst the audience.
Colin introduces the first dance and Henry (our banner-bearer).
The others wait in eager anticipation

The standard way of ending the day when Wicket Brood is with us.
A double set of Worcestershire Monkey
Probably the best dance at the festival

On Monday, some of us were watching (and heckling) Wicket Brood.
At an opportune moment, many of Wicket Broods dancers developed a
headache and the audience was asked for "volunteers" to help them
out with a Worcestershire Monkey.
Jenny, Colin, Chris and Tiff stepped forward.

Another picture from the same dance.
Chris is most visible.

Tiff and David finish off the Monkey Hey at the end of the dance.
