It's a form of folk dancing - groups of men dance in patterns to ensure fertility, good harvests etc. It's still popular in the west country and in rural parts of England. However many troups now have women dancers. This is the officialish definition. Mr Nell's definition is lots of men with facial hair waving hankies and wearing bells around their ankles.Nell Dixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16346808072962615721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11147054.post-23875389459950537022008-07-20T21:37:00.000+01:002008-07-20T21:37:00.000+01:00Excuse my ignorance but what are Morris Dancers?Excuse my ignorance but what are Morris Dancers?EllenToohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06114930219445131840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11147054.post-48179430288772135222008-07-20T20:50:00.000+01:002008-07-20T20:50:00.000+01:00Gorgeous roses.Pea pod candle?!?
