"The Southport Swords (SW Lancs)are regularly (i.e. annually) to be seen in the centre of the town at 0525 or so. Dancing, singing and drinking when the beer festival starts at 0600!"

So thats SW Lancs dancing Yorkshire Longsword?

"I'll be playing for dancing (Boggart's Breakfast border morris) at dawn on Tuesday morning - on top of a mountain in the Derbyshire Peak District"

Border Morris in Derbyshire?

"I play for weald of kent morris and we dance at dawn in the village of Goudhurst. ............ We then "winster" through the village and do another stand at the duck pond.

Is that Winster in Derbyshire?

"Alderley Edge (links with King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, Merlin, etc.) is the place to be!"

That's Aurthur a fictional character?

Is anyone else confused?
