Tollemache Arms, Harrington

A kind invitation to the beer festival took us to Harrington on a very dark 2nd August. No more dancing out on Mondays now until 6th September.

The White Horse, Stoke Albany

Usually we dance out the front of this pub, and no one watches... On this visit we occupied the car park and had an audience. Thank you!

Chandler's Arms, Shearsby

As the Squire was away tonight, the website editor (also Deputy Squire), devised a programme, which we adapted as we went along, and called the dances. Because of this, I can tell you what we danced, (although I can't remember what order we did it in):

Rose Tree; Highland Mary; Balance the Straw; Bluebells of Scotland; Lads a Bunchum; Young Collins; Skirmish; Lollipop Man; Mona’s; Jenny Lind; Bonny Green Garters. This, for the record, took just over an hour.

And also, because of this, Joe took the photos (thank you Joe).

As usual at Shearsby, there were a lot of people watching (and taking photos) - thank you!

Foxton Locks

A pleasure to be joined at Bridge 61, Foxton Locks, by Hips N Haws. Our thanks to them.

Coach and Horses, Lubenham

A rather damp and grey night at Lubenham.

Old Red Lion, Clipston

We had the idea that it usually rains when we dance in Clipston (very close to the site of the Battle of Naseby), and tonight it did, but only as we were packing up.

The Square, Market Harborough

Dancing in The Square, Market Harborough, to draw attention to collectors for Macmillan, joined by Bakanalia Border Morris: thanks to them for joining with us.
