Royal Cornwall Show
The great thing about being a Morris side with some enthusiasm is that you get invited to fantastic events like the Royal Cornwall Show. Boy, was it hot – but fabulous too. The sun was beating down here in this photo, when the man behind me asked why we were all sober still. He reckoned it was the first Morris side he’d seen which was sober. I had to try to point out that this was sort of early – since it wasn’t yet half past ten – but honesty forces me to admit that before eleven, all had started drinking. In the heat here, by God, we needed some sort of liquid inside us. Thank God for white clothing. It kept us a little cooler!
