    Roger, I did mean the Pageant, knew it wasn't on every year but didn't realise it had been dropped.

    Morris dancing isn't just about blokes waving hankies and jingling bells round their ankles, there are several styles that are very energetic and look quite aggressive. But it is also becoming very popular generally and the newer styles are popular with a younger generation.

    One of the resurrected traditions in the program involved about 100 dancers pulling a cart loaded about 15 feet high with reeds and two rowan trees and an elderly dancer on top to all the pubs in the parish - I recommend watching the program if it's repeated, loads of music, dancing, fun, beer and fertility rites
