Morris On!

Went to Oxford on the bus today - first time we have done this. Now that I have my pass it's good value even though young mrsfb has to pay. Cheaper than petrol, parking and bus fares from the Park and Ride which we normally do. The bus was almost full though on the way there, but OK on the return leg.

We went today because it it was Oxford Folk Weekend, with lots of morris dancing, something which is dear to mrsfb's heart. When we lived in Bromsgrove she danced with Nancy Butterfly, a North West Clog side. I think they got their name from a saying 'you better watch out or you'll end up in the gutter, like Nancy Butterfly'. When we moved they came and danced up our road and on to our drive, as a surprise farewell tribute to mrsfb. The extra shows her dancing with them back in 1995. That's not me chasing her by the way.

The main image shows a Border Morris side from today, I think they are the most photogenic.
