Most of the women get used to it, Jayne. The WaGs seem to form their own little gang, which is probably a good thing because the side can be quite exclusive when they're out - bit like a male rugby crowd, only slightly better mannered.
Not that my own bloke is a morris man. He wouldn't go that far and is probably nowhere near fit enough (yes, they do need to be very fit), but we do understand the whole thing a lot more since getting to know the side. In fact the 'old looney with the accordion' (a fiddle in this case) is a very knowledgable music teacher and has been giving me some great advice.

Some years ago, a supporter of morris dancing had a letter published in The Times. In it, he extolled the notion that the activity involved muscular activity, use of hand/eye co-ordination and various other supposedly good things. Another correspondent replied a few days later, pointing out that the list was a perfect one for the average masturbator. This, he claimed, was why nearly every one else considers them to be bankers!
