Pink House people

Ironbridge, Shropshire - 2006

Over the festive few days, there is Morris dancing on the bridge in the deep gorge of the Severn. On Boxing Day, they turn up in "fancy dress", whereas on New Year's Day, they come dressed like this - just ordinary.


... and they all dress just like anybody else would at this time of year.

... and they pretend to hit each other, festively, with big sticks.

... and they go to the pub across the road half way through. And they wobble a little during the second half of the show, after more than several halfs of ale. Oh yes, being earthy British creatures, they only drink ale - not that horrid lager stuff,
beloved of Americans and Germans.
This year, Maggie has made a short video that we'll be showing at the next Broseley Cinema event, on the 16th of January.

London - 2006


We went to stay in London for a full week, staying in Hampstead as "house sitters". It gave us wonderful opportunity to amble about, and to get to grips with a city that we'd steered away from for many years.
This is Blackfriar's Bridge.
