Hope the line has now been drawn under the mens'/womens' morris discussion - at least on this thread. I danced with Adlington at the first Rushcart (revival) and I recall that we ended up at Diggle fete on the Sunday where we beat Saddleworth in the tug of war!!! There was only Saddleworth, Adlington, Gorton (plus Wrigley Head on Sunday)that year and there was a much longer pull on the Sunday. Was back there last year with Wadard (note the spelling Ed) after a lapse of some 20 years and had a terrific time especially meeting old friends like Martin Stimson(hope to see Bobbie there this year).
