Cleopatra Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 I mean this in the nicest possible way folks, but, having just watched the video, the Morris Dancing troup feature in the Bawming Of The Thorn looks like it could use some young blood, otherwise it may eventually die out. The dancers featured looked like they could be getting on a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Just reminded me, when we were in the Lake District a couple of years ago there were morris dancers near a pub and they were rather amusing to watch (not saying morris dancers are naff by they way but they were errrm 'funny'. It didn't help that one one was the spitting image of Cllr Ian Marks . Might try and find that photo tomorrow and upload it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RingoDave Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 kevofaz is one of the more experienced and capable morris dancers of this fair county (and possibly a wider area - location, not kev!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleopatra Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Plenty of youngsters but not available for this gig- always happy to take on new blood if you have any to spare? My blood is too old. I have six sons, and, five grandsons who are late teens/ early twenties. Plus quite a few young nephews of a similar age. I'm sure any one or more of them would be interested but, alas and alack, all live here in Egypt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RingoDave Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 You're never too old to Morris dance - just look at some of the photos on Thelwall Morris Site - sorry Kev! However, the commuting would definitely cause problems!:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Parish Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 For your delight and delectation: http://www.morrismovie.com/morrismovie_media.asp?v=1 And a more serious treatment (based on revival of an Oxfordshire "side" that ended when few of them came back from the Great war): 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
