The Three Horseshoes, Frampton on Severn

8.00pm Morris Time

It's such a great pub with amazing beer.  Might be my favourite.

Meet the side

Ray

or..as we like to call him...

Ray

Ray has now been a professional Morris Dancer for over fifty years now.  His expert knowledge on all things "Morris" is vital to our traditions.

He came to us a couple of years ago, having danced many traditional styles over the years and we have gradually brought him over to our style, and actually he's rather good.

Favourite Colour:                 Blue
Favourite 80s Rock Band:    Saxon
Favourite Dance:                  Unsquare Dance
Favourite Beer:                     Timothy Taylor

When not dancing for us, Ray can also be seen dancing with a proper Morris side Icknield Way Morris Men  they do an awful lot of dancing and I really do recommend going to see them.  One day, I will!

The Ship Inn, Brimscombe

Blimey!

What a great pub.  A really good size pub with some decent beer (Uley, Doom and Bob).  Good size restaurant and nice chirpy landlady.

Also some great punters, some of which we persuaded to join in the mass Princess Royal.

We also had a couple of lost border dancers turn up to join in and finish the evening with a good beer and a shanty.

Nice!

To have a look at all of our pics - have a look at our photobucket account.
