Saw my first swifts of the year over the square in Bletchley while playing for Morris at noon today :-D
Now waiting for the train to the pub…
All kitted up and on my way. My feet are remembering how clogs feel. It's a sad day but Horwich Prize Medal Morris will say farewell in spectacular fashion with many friends. #morrisdancing #folkmusic #manchester #horwich #bolton
Looks like it is going to be a good day for dancing out - we are off in a few hours on the Marston Vale Line with its ultra modern class 150 trains to brighten up Bletchley, Fenny Stratford and Ridgmont.
I guess that means it is time to tie some red ribbons on my new hat.
Hums to self
“All around my hat I will wear a red ribbon
All around my hat for a twelve month and a day
And if anyone should ask me the reason why I’m wearing it
It’s for the revolution that’s not far away”
Or maybe not.
Decades of anticipation finally pay off: The #BinghamtonMorrisMen have a YouTube channel!
