....except incest and Morris dancing!

Well it finally happened I've gone back to Morris dancing. It happened at the Sweeps festival in Rochester last weekend when I was finally convinced to go back. So I went along to practise last Wednesday and again this afternoon - and to be honest I really enjoyed it. I'm also amazed how many of the dances I can actually remember after 2 years.

Also today the side - Wolf's Head & Vixen - were in the Independent on Sunday magazine in an article entitled

"Hey nonny no, no, no: Goths and pagans are reinventing morris dancing"

you can see it here

And there are pictures of the side here and here

Here is one of them it's our friends Hanna and Matt with their daughter Lillie
