The Brigg Blogg... 2020-21...or some of the things we have been up to recentlyBoxing Day 2021Unfortunately a miserable day which meant the dance had to be cancelled before most of us had left the comfort of home- kind of sums up the last 2 years, really. On the plus side the weather is looking better for the second traditional dance of the season, on New Year's Day at the Plough and Sail... Fast-forward to the 2022 blogg above to see if it happened!! September 2021Over a year on, we are back dancing- hooray! We filled the time with a bit of virtual dancing and other things via Zoom, which is not quite a substitute for the real thing, and one or two socially-distanced meet-ups when allowed in wind-swept locations (ie Sizewell beach) -very pleasant though. What is encouraging after such a long break, we can remember most of the dances! We are very pleased to welcome new members Paul and Marianne, and Meg, and looking forward to our first proper out-and-about Boxing Day and New Year's Day. March 2020 - Covid HooleyStrange times but we have bowed to the inevitable and temporarily hung up the clogs. Kit day is on hold, St George's Day will go unmarked, and hazy evenings outside a good hostelry with a frothing pint of warm ale in hand are a distant dream. But we are not downhearted- I feel sure there is a lot of buffing-up of clogs, hat flower rearranging, and private practice of 'Grain's Bar' happening even as I tap this. So as Arnie memorably put it (although probably not in connection to Morris dancing), we'll be back... New Year's Day- Snape MaltingsWelcome to 2020! No howling gale to contend with this time (see previous year's blog, boxing day), and we had a full session in the good company of Danegeld and Pretty Grim. A varied repertoire of dances including Horbury Rushcart- well remembered, everyone- and an outing for Grenoside. Also a joint Carr Lodge with Danegeld performed at high speed, with the usual fun and games and crossed wires which resulted in us doing zip while they all went off to the pub, or whatever they call that figure... Well danced all, very jolly!
