Ukebert,
Maybe you could afford more bells if you quit buying Melodeons....just a thought!



It's not my money that's going on bells ;D

Pads?  You sure your not playing American "football"?  Didn't know Morris was so rough!

The American footballers are pansies in comparison. Pads?  Helmets!  ::)

Mmm, the Wheatley Tray Dance is a favourite of mine. First time we attempted it though, we were given solid pewter trays...

I'll agree with you on American football, Morris looks downright dangerous!  If only you could add the appropriate amount of spurting blood ala Monty Python!

Muletrain! (Slams tray down on Ebor Morris member's head - one of our own ancient traditions!)  :M

My other melodeon's a fiddle, but one of my Hohners has six strings! I also play a very red Hawkins Bazaar in C and a generic Klingenthaler spoon bass in F.!! My other pets (played) are gobirons - Hohner Marine Band in C, Hohner Tremolo in D and a Chinese Thingy Tremolo in G.

It's Constant Billy.

Note to anyone attempting this dance; hit your partner with the flat, middle bit of the tray, otherwise it hurts. A lot.
