In the front of his version. And VI, of course.<br /><br />Incidentally, King James WAS a morris dancer during the off season. Many people don't know that.<br /><br />@Expat Mum - I do indeed remember your mention of that tradition in your wonderful and informative <a href="http://www.rulesbritannia.com/" rel="nofollow">book</a>. Also the mention of "Pantomime" and how to spell "theater" wrong. It was good. :)Relax Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051381168322495999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5987697048218684478.post-13115934533907251332012-01-24T11:59:24.163-07:002012-01-24T11:59:24.163-07:00Have you seen the movie about Morris Dancing?

OMG it's hilarious.<br />I wrote about Morris Dancing in my book, and actually had an expat American (who'd been in London for five whole years) tell me I must be making it up because he'd never seen Morris Dancing in his life. Well, it tends not to be a regular occurrence in the middle of London, I'll admit that!Expat mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17798190669591053390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5987697048218684478.post-77328598331379021302012-01-24T06:07:43.325-07:002012-01-24T06:07:43.325-07:00Oops, sorry.
