OccasionalDucks<p>Great day in Oxford - piping, squeezeboxing and dancing. No severe cockups, lots of smiles :-) </p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/FolkLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkLife</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDance</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDancing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDancing</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/OxfordFolkFestival" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OxfordFolkFestival</span></a></p>
OccasionalDucks<p>Aching legs, shoulders and back from the bed in the B&amp;B, and a message to say we are already one dancer down due to illness.<br />So getting back on track for the day of dance to go unusually well.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDance</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDancing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDancing</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FolkLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkLife</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/OxfordFolkFestival" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OxfordFolkFestival</span></a></p>
OccasionalDucks<p>It is traditional that the last morris practice before a “big” dance out goes badly, and the major event then goes well.<br /><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://folksocial.org/@RedCuthbert" class="u-url mention">@<span>RedCuthbert</span></a></span> had a really good practice session last night, before dancing at Oxford Folk Festival tomorrow - so it may be terrible! There’s only one way to find out…</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDancing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDancing</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDance</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FolkLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkLife</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/OxfordFolkFestival" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OxfordFolkFestival</span></a></p>
OccasionalDucks<p>The good news is that while I need more practice, morris music night went well last night.<br />The bad news is that as I am over keen and like the different sounds of different boxes it may mean taking a second accordion (i.e. a one-row/true melodeon) as well as my main box (D/G two row) and two flavours of bagpipe (D and G)… this is somewhat encumbering. </p><p>Oh well, it is my own fault! At least I can fit my rag coat into the pipe case so don’t need a kit bag too. I hope.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/FolkLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkLife</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDance</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDancing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDancing</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisMusic</span></a></p>
OccasionalDucks<p>“We don’t want Morris to take over our lives. One event a month, two in high season, is plenty” we said.<br />Somehow we have over twenty events in the next six months, and seem to still be feeling keen and saying “yes” to anything that doesn’t clash!<br />Maybe we *do* want Morris to take over our lives - actions speak louder than words.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/FolkLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FolkLife</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/MorrisDancing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MorrisDancing</span></a></p>
