New year, new challenges, new ambitions, new mountains to climb, new rivers to be swum, etc – for many teams. BB however are carrying on as normal in 2002.
One event to report on so far, which was an appearance at the Haddenham ceilidh on 2nd Feb, with 2 spots during the ceilidh with band Malarkey. Despite some difficulties getting the breeches on again for some of the team, the spots went well, and the music flowed forth just as it always did (Sue benefiting from those long nights out in the open on the African plains during the English winter, with only her melodeon and some lions, bears and snakes for company. Amazing how those Morris tunes scared off all the dangerous predators).
Meanwhile the practice season is continuing with some signs of a new dance emerging for later in the year, and the potential return of an old member, at a stroke doubling the number of Malcolms in the team. Welcome back, bonny lad.
Everyone is looking forward to our own 25th birthday weekend, July 12 – 14, and plans are proceeding apace, albeit a slow pace. But the team is on the case, and the booking of the bus for the Luton tour for one of our guest sides is imminent. Roll on summer …..
