Thank you for this video. I am English living in Glasgow Scotland since February 2015. I respect the tradition of kilts and bagpipes but enjoy the Rnglish Morris dancing as someone who lived in England for 57 years.

This sort of thing is so important for younger people to see, I think. We tend to believe, with our phones and internet and pop music and everything else, that our ancestors lived in a time that was either grey or black and white, a time before colour, a time before entertainment, before music, before fun. They didn't. They lived, they loved, they revelled, they celebrated, they danced and they played their music, they too found joy in this life. I saw a Morris dance today for the first time at 28...I didn't think I'd like it, and at various points I wasn't sure quite what I was watching. But now I'm here, 12 minutes into this video, and I'm captivated. I couldn't tell you why. I don't know why I like it - only that I do.

You're so right. Today's youth are becoming disconnected from their history and heritage.

Was this in 2022? There are no visual clues to assign a year for this event. It is lovely and genuine.
