Another trip to Worthing and a Celebrity speaker

We took another trip down to Worthing this week - the main purpose was for me to get some yarn at the Fabric Store (they sell yarn as well).  Unfortunately, they did not have any of the colours I needed so I ended up sending away for it.  I was surprised to find that sending away for it only cost an extra 50p above buying it in the store.  I ordered it on Wednesday evening and it arrived this morning (Friday).  Fantastic service from Black Sheep Wools.

The weather when we went to Worthing was quite dull, but I managed to get a few snaps in during a short break in the clouds after lunch.













Once a year the village garden club invites a Celebrity Speaker.  Those who listen to Gardener's Question time will know Matthew Wilson.    He was an excellent speaker, informative and amusing.

The Morris Dancers in Horsham - May 2023

 We should have guessed when we saw some of the Morris Dancers at the Park and Ride bus stop,but we were not prepared for the large number of Morris Dancers gathered outside the Lynd Cross pub in Horsham.    We went in for coffee and watched even more dancers gathering before groups of them dispersed around the town.    Morris dancing is an English folk dance first recorded in 1448.   The dance is based on rhythmic stepping by a group of dancers, often wearing bells on their knees or shoes.  Sticks, Swords, or handkerchiefs are also wielded in tune with the music. This was obviously well organised as the groups of Morris Dancers moved around the town all morning performing their own particular dance.    These are just a few photos I took on my iPhone as we came across them . The drummers were fantastic. More soon --------------------------
