A Happy New Year from all of us to all of you. A year without dancing has been no joke so here's a few groaners to tide you over till you get your crackers next year!The foreman’s New Year Resolution is that we only do hankie dances but I know it won’t stick.I considered dancing with no socks but got cold feetI didn’t think orthopaedic shoes would help but I stand correctedA bee flew into my bell pads – a real humdingerSomeone asked if I knew where my hat was. I said “Not off the top of my head” A boastful friend explains how trying Morris dancing has changed his outlook in his blog post ‘From Brags to Britchies’After watching Steve McQueen leap over the wire in the perennial Christmas movie our foreman has been inspired to use a new method of checking if we’re OK to dance.

Since the announcement that Breaking (break dancing) is to become an olympic sport in 2024, we have literally been inundated by a letter from a Mrs Trellis from North Wales. She writes: ----------------------------------------------------------------Dear MauriceI've read that the well-known exponent of Breaking, Richard 'Crazy Legs' Colon (54), has said "This is true folk art, from the music to the dance to the DJ to the rapper, whatever, to the graffiti artist." Surely Morris (morris dancing) would be more popular if you could come up with some catchy nicknames.yours etc-----------------------------------------------------------------Well, Mrs Trellis, I put this suggestion to our Squire, Graham 'Wacky Sticky' Kennett and our melodeonist Will 'Eezy Sqeezy' Newman but they were both unavailable for comment.www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/55223554 ...
