Greensleeves again

The "allsorts" having danced “Highland Laddie”, it was time once again for Greensleeves.
This time with they had the help (or otherwise) of their "character" Mike Cogan. The dance this time is probably "Alison's Fancy".

North Wood at the Spreadeagle

At The Spread Eagle in Katharine Street, we had to ring the bell & bang on the door to get in: this dance was at the landlady's request.

Rutland, with conscripted Greensleeves’ members, again insisted that they needed female assistance (in this case, Becky) to form their human pyramid. The performance took place outside The Royal Standard in Wandle Road, just under the flyover.
