Coming from the Midlands as a child we would go to the Cotswolds Sunday afternoon and often see the Morris out. I remember it scared me for some unknown reason.  Curiosity got the better of me and the wealth of information about the Morris on the Internet has expanded my knowledge and I am hooked.

I then met Roger at the Folk Club and the rest is history!
