Thanks for setting the record straight Mr.Fox. It's easy to get the wrong impression and as you might expect from the last paragraph of my previous posting (no, not the one about the cold water) I like the sound of what you do and why you do it.

Kevin: I hope it's clear now that the issue that the authorities have is with crowds in the streets, not the sessions in the pubs. The procession blocks traffic on the road and the audience obstructs pedestrians on the pavement. 30 dance teams have been invited to Straw Bear and that, together with the many visitors that come for the day, is a lot of people in a place that's no more than a big village.
