MORRIS DANCING



 Black Swan - tonight

Langport's only pub will be all bells, handkerchiefs and baseball bats this evening (Thurs) as a ring of local Morris Dancers turns up to celebrate Somerset Day.

Here at Carry On Langport we had no idea Somerset had a 'day'.

"Never heard of it" said Huish Episcopi Parish Council Leader Dame Shirley Nicholas, "as far as I'm concerned it's Somerset Day everyday!" she smiled...as she rolled up her binder twine, pushed her deputy Graham Lock's trousers through her mangle and put her goat out to graze at St Mary's Park.

The dancers will be strutting their stuff at the North Street pub from 7.30pm with the first 'handkerchief fight' expected to break out towards 9 o'clock.

The landlady has reportedly promised to "unplug the tumble drier" for the duration of the event but added she couldn't guarantee she'd be able to do the same for her husband.

There are no further details.
