About Living in a Box

  • 2007 will be the year of change in this little house and garden we call "The Box". We have been renting this house for 2 years, and never did much with it (or the garden) as we thought we'd be buying our own home. But we are likely to be here another few years before we can buy, so we are making the house and garden more comfortable. I am also looking for an allotment nearby.

Morris Men on Mayday

What a wonderful time we've just had watching the Icknield Way Morris Men dancing in Wantage Market Square.  Meg (granddaughter) really enjoyed herself, and was clapping along to the music. The sun was shining (although there was a bit of a stiff breeze).

They even posed for me ! Isn't it wonderful to see young boys taking part in the old traditions ?

Thank you Icknield Way Morris Men for a lovely hour.

If you don't know anything about Morris Dancing - it's worth looking it up and having a good read.

Now this is cool ... I know about Morris Dancing through music. The costumes are amazing. It is good to see young boys taking part in keeping traditions alive!
