11082026 D&P Yateley and F&W Eversley 

Definitely crepuscular – alternative words available, dusk, gloaming, eventide – all rather lovely. Great to be ‘at home’ in Yateley and Eversley with a good YMM turnout AND a small but enthusiastic, chatty crowd. Still really warm, the dancers sweatin’ and snortin’ like work horses. Eynsham’s lively dance Figure 8 certainly got the lungs pumping…!

Welcoming and attractive pubs with nice beers…and nice staff.

Lots of lively announcing from our Noisy One, this week sporting a new Yateley heirloom, a cummerbund from the long defunct YMM North West Clog side. It seemed to keep shirt and gut under control. Lots of good dancing as well at both venues.

Our information banner was up as well, letting folk know how and when they could get involved in morris dancing – our great lively, tradition. Get in touch!

The light faded to gentle dusk, soft lights came on and no-one really wanted to leave…. Another brilliant evening ‘at home’ in the heart of our community. 

Pick of the dances – Figure 8! Not Winster Processional. 

Pick of the beers – Tricky, either Pride or the Rebellion
