I HAVE BEEN STUNG ,I HAVE BEEN STUNG MOST UNKINDLY " she bellowed.Pray tell Madam e"nquired the green keeper and where were thou stung your ladyship ?----between the first

and second hole she bruskly declared.If your ladyship pleases I always thought your stance was too wide,-- he said.Hence the beginnings of Morris dancing it was such a source of glee and bemusement to the beholding Knights they decided at their next AGM to re-enact this peculiar behaviour and an out of tune fiddle was introduced to substitute the sound of a stinging bee and the bells were tied to the trouser legs to prevent any temptation to putt their balls into holes in the soil-- the gingle of which was a giveaway alert to the observers .wasps and bees have purpose too !
