OK - Teapot. The Abram Morris dance is around a portable maypole which is surmounted by - you've guessed it - A teapot! In the original tradition it was decorated with flowers (and the teapot of course) but also decorated with other baubles donated for the day by the rich people of Abram. Have a look at Here for details. And yes - there realy is a morris dancer called Michael Jackson!

Cotswold Morris - Probably the most common form of the morris and the one which springs to most peoples minds. Whites, hankies, bells etc. As opposed to North West Morris, Border Morris, Rapper, Longsword etc.
