Marion in Cornwall	Folklore: Cornish Paddle (12)	RE: Origins: Cornish Paddle	04 Feb 04
A quick search in 'google' came up with this site: http://www.an-daras.com/d_danceindex_p_cockinbritches.asp It tells you about "the 'weedin' paddle itself, a tool with a blade reminiscent of a shoe horn and a cross piece on a long pole used for pulling out long rooted weeds, especially docks and dandelions." It also provides the words and dance music, and how to do the dance. Hope this is helpful Regards, Marion
