Christmas People
Dressed as Christmas people, we danced at Desborough Gala Night. We danced in Station Rd., quite sheltered, away from any loud music. Thank you if you stopped to watch, or joined in.

Macmillan Collection Day, Market Harborough
Some photos from the recent Macmillan Collection day in Market Harborough town centre, where we danced with Bakanalia Border Morris and with Hips 'n' Haws. We enjoyed the day and the weather (and the nearby stalls to mark Harborough's Transition Town status), and donations were generous. Thank you if you came to watch.

Annual General Meeting
Another year has passed, and we met last Monday, the 8th, for our AGM.
All the office bearers were re-elected and the accounts approved.
Here are two things we decided:
We would not meet for our customary Plough Monday Feast in January, but instead would have a Mayday Feast on May 1st. At which we could dance out.
And we would not meet for our customary early morning Mayday dance out. We have done this in the town centre at Market Harborough for some years, but this has (perhaps not surprisingly) drawn a large audience. Also, this year (which ended up being rained off, as it turns out), many of us were unable to be there due to work or family commitments.

Taster Evening - come and try Morris!
Have you seen us and wanted to have a go? Have you always wanted to try Morris dancing?
Come along on Monday 15th October 2012 to Braybrooke Village Hall at 7.45 and have a try, in a non threatening (and non dressed up!) environment. No need to dress in Morris costume - just come along.
See you there?

Nevill Arms, Medbourne
No photos of the last few weeks, for one reason or another. But here are some of a lovely summer evening at Medbourne.

Queen's Head, Billesdon
It has become a tradition by now, I think, that we spend the Wednesday nearest Midsummer at the Queen's Head. We were joined, as ever, by Bakanalia Border Morris and New St George Morris, and also by one member of Rutland Morris. There were some people watching, but this is really a selfish evening for ourselves - it is always very good to watch other sides. You may see dances that you yourselves do, as well as seeing the unfamiliar.
