Just re-read my earlier post. Bad day at work and I shouldn't have ripped off at no one in particular. Just because I have to take the crap while dancing and then coz I sing folk it's no reason to blame MC'ers who just wanted to share some humour.

Dressing in Clogs , knee britches ,white knee length socks and a flowery hat leaves me little to complain about the odd prod.

To try and answer the question posed by GUEST , Curious , it's all things to all dancers. For me it was a revelation of music and movement. Some of the moves and turns give a most satisfying feeling. Perhaps because most of them are hundreds of years old. The music was what I enjoyed listening to anyway and the righteous feel of keeping a tradition alive was a little icing on the cake.

Like FolkieDave I have danced far more extensively abroad than I have sang. France , Germany and Belgium and most counties in England. It doesn't stop me looking like a knob head while I am doing it , but it suits me.
