Thread Name: what do you think of morris offspring???
Subject: RE: what do you think of morris offspring???
Goodnes gracious me, what a long thread to plough through !

I've never seen 'Morris Offspring' on my many travels but I have seen very many young uns joining existing morris sides, including the one I am associated with; the Slubbing Billys from Huddersfield.

We even had to change our 'constitution(?)' at an AGM to vote on lowering the age when new members can join. This was only a silly formality and there were no objections. Now our dance members range from 7 to 72 years of age.

How old are members of Morris Offspring and do they have a minimum and a maximum age when members can be in the team?
If not, how long can they remain a 'morris offspring'.? What happens when they get older. Is it like the scouts/guides thing who only accept children between a certain age range?
What happens when Morris Offspring have offspring, will they have to start a new side called "The Morris Offsprings' Offspring" ?

Questions questions, banal I know, but stupid questions like these keep me awake at night!!
