One Boxing Day early morning a few years ago Chris Coe and I sat in a bar room in Flamborough watching the late Trevor Stone 'refreshing' that years sword team's collective memory about how the dance should go.

Trevor commented that that year's version, for better or worse, was down to him!

It's probably more important that these things continue to be enacted rather than get too bound up in the details of how they are enacted, interesting though these details may be.

The value of the work done by Sharp and modern collectors like Trevor Stone, Doc Rowe and Paul Davenport is that the detail is recorded for the people who own the traditions to refer to if they feel inclined.

Great work by the EFDSS in getting even more stuff accessible on the web! Bring it on!
