Morris Men finale at the Tonbridge Carnival Procession

The Morris Men are always my favourite part of Tonbridge Carnival and I was really pleased they were there again this year. Here are some photographs for those of you who missed them.

  1. I have never really understood Morris dancing, and the picture at the end with the donkey confirms my suspicions that it is a very strange activity. :)

  2. Hi again, as you were so kind to retweet about my book, I thought I'd offer some unsolicited advice. Go to http://www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engines/metatag-analyzer.html and enter this post's address. You'll see that there are some things you could do to optimise your site for search engines, primarily things like meta description, page size, ensuring images have good alt tags etc.

    Feel free to ping me if you have any questions. mulledvine AT gmail DOT com.

  3. Thanks for that Robert - I am useless at all these things and certainly not a pro-blogger. I'll take a look at what you suggest - maybe I'll understand a little of it.

  4. At the very least, go to blogger->settings->search preferences and enter a brief description of your blog, using as many relevank keywords as you can, but not making it too long.

    So for example:

    "Tonbridge daily information blog, containing photos, pictures, images, news, events of local and Kent-wide events."

    I also highly recommend addthis.com to get some social sharing buttons. Very easy to install. Do email if you run into problems.

  5. Robert, the only thing to understand about Morris Dancing is that it is one aspect of English culture. Other countries promote their traditional heritage, here we tend to mock ours.
    Regrettably, these days, activities that are culturally based, harmless, promote teamwork, non competitive, good exercise, enjoyable and bring smiles to the faces of audiences are often considered strange in a society led by media based 'hyped up' entertainment.
