Who needs hankies...

...when you can dance with seaweed?

The 'Slightly Notorious' Ebor Morris having fun in the sea at Low Newton, on their annual trip to Northumberland.

Mr M and I went down to watch them and to meet up with friends. The dancers promised us 'fertility, good luck and sunshine' if we'd contribute to their beer money put some money into their hat, so we did. And, as if by magic, a dull morning turned into a very warm, sunny afternoon. So we made the most of it, sitting in the sun at Low Newton until the dancers moved on. Then off for a walk in Detchant Woods, followed by a meal in the pub in Belford.

What a great day out!
