There was a side performed here whose hats were decorated with badges saying "knockers to women's morris".

It did strike me when I got involved in a discussion (mild word) on the subject that the inability to explain why, and the strength with which the tradition was defended was very like the CofE attitude to women priests. There's something very deep and difficult there. Not just tradition (I'm listening to Fiddler on the Roof now). The morris reaction actually coloured my feelings about the church arguments.
