Well – if this is June and it’s supposed to flame – something has gone awry! It was cold and the pub had a roaring fire!  Light levels were low – thus the blurred hankies – or was it they were moving fast to keep warm! Dancing with Old Speckled Hen!!

Jim takes the role rather seriously and start our big tent spot with a sermon!

But we look good on a big stage!

In all 4 dance spots and a delightful processional – a lesson for Burford – down hill!

And a fond farewell dance from guests Jenny and Barney from Oz

Who was warming up for a Summertown? This is a competition- answers on a £10 note to Nigel.

Which side stands a chance when competing with a cute chip eating duck!

‘Be there at 10’ – wouldn’t want to be late for the 1130 start!  There’s Morris time – at least 10 minutes late – and a new low in time keeping – Leveller’s Time!

After the hill climb – we took in the origins of Costwold Morris – Costwold ouses

A spot of levitation and Runaround without Metal MIcky!

Finally Oliver managed to get into a neighbouring village on Donkey Shaving!

Before Mick and he did their Gumby impressions!

“We would put a tax on all people….that dance with hankies!”

For the real expert pythoners – who has too much and who has too little – and of what?

A pleasant evening – warm but low light levels

Guests – Icknield Way Morris- welcome

 Less welcome guest!  The pub is called the fox – this is one that got away from it – or maybe the pub should be re-named – the Rather Noisy Peacock!

A return to a favourite pub – with special guests Emily – now 12!  dancing Shave the Donkey after a 3 minute briefing from Emma!! and Vale Islanders.

At last a warm summer evening – with a splendid ensemble and great dancing.

A gloomy evening – light wise that ended at 2100 outside with a fierce hail storm – but not after some splendid dancing and entertainment.  Great guests Bodicote – great fun – and our own guests, Jenny and Barney from Aus!  Note for knicker police – red shoes – no ……….?

Was Tom moving that fast or was it shutter speed on a gloomy evening?

A sunny evening in Eaton and a good turnout – of dancers and musicians.

Our subs bench – waiting to be called on!

Elsa and Esther strut their stuff for the first time – well done.  A first for Havocs – a side with average age of less than 30!

Tom gets his first dancer out off to a flier!
