The Woodman, Wild Hill

Humid doesn’t quite do it justice, but where better to be on such a warm night than the Woodman at Wild Hill.

We were joined by our friends from Etcetera Morris Men and a small but enthusiastic audience.

Redbourn

We had a good evening in Redbourn on Monday, dancing first at The Cricketers and then for an appreciative audience at The Holly Bush, where two sticks were broken – some of our dancers don’t know their own strength!

Westminster Morris Men Day of Dance

St Albans Morris headed off for central London on Saturday, 11th May as guests of Westminster Morris Men for their day of dance.

Neither hail nor rain could not dampen our spirits as we danced the sights of the city with friends from Westminster and Hartely Morris Men and Camden Clog, wowing the crowds wherever we went with our enthusiasm and fleet-footed dancing, including massed dances in Trafalgar Square.

Thankfully, the sun eventually shone, giving us the chance to dance in the early evening warmth in front of the National Gallery.

Standalone Farm

We had a great time dancing on the early May Bank Holiday at Standalone Farm in Letchworth Garden City. It was good to see so many little farmers and their families joining in!
