I DO not think we quite expected that at our recent meeting, we would be hopping around the village hall but thanks to our speaker Mike Ledbury, that is exactly what we did! Mike Ledbury presented his 'Confessions of a Morris Dancer' by explaining how he became involved whilst gradually introducing us to some of the easier steps of Morris Dancing, and encouraging all us to try them,hence the hopping. Along the way, we learned about the costume, the customs and the music. After this rather energetic talk, we had certainly earned our cup of tea and gently returned to business. Members were reminded of the various activities coming up, including our regular coffee & chat meet, skittles, walks and pub lunch. At our next meeting (July 6), we discover what our garden birds actually get up to - sounds quite intriguing. Look out for details in 'What's On' section of the paper, our Facebook Page or our website eckingtonwi.moonfruit.com.
