Castle Lawn |
With a Hey Nonny Nonny, jangling bells, a procession of white leggings and flowered hats, troupes of Morris Men joined together this afternoon in a massed celebration and display of dancing on the Castle Lawn. The Mayor was in attendance to see the incombent Squire of the Morris Ring, Peter Halfpenney, dance out and the new Squire, Robin Springett, dance in.
Laughing about our folk traditions is an English tradition in itself, but it seemed that both young and old were enjoying the afternoon of music and dancing, and to be honest it was a fabulous spectacle,. It could only have gone down even more of a treat with a cream tea.
Now how quintessentially english can one get?????
