Just Morris Dancers and the English. And with us English morris dancers you get a "toofer". So fire away - as was stated above, it's all water off a duck's back. Wassail! V |

Seriously, though, I hear people talking about this and I still know NOTHING about it. Even a little Net surfing really didn't tell me much. So what's it all about? |

29 May 01 - 12:46 PM (#472373) Subject: RE: BS: Jingle Bells From: Burke Kim, Here's one information page I found by searching Morris dancing at Yahoo. Morris Dancing It's usually six guys dressed in funny clothes dancing in lines of 3 facing each other. They wear bells on thier shins and wave handkerchiefs or sticks when dancing. It's very, very old. It's very athletic & women do it now days as well. |
