@squeezyjohn Did they swear in celtic or cornish etc?

@ReissOmari I live near the Queensway. No plan to get rid of it, idk what you're reading. They're changing it, to make the traffic flow better.

For #TwitterTunesdays this week, are a few of the many tunes, used by Earlsdon Morris, when we process to and from every spot we dance at.

@squeezyjohn Not that I am biased at all, but i think you'll find we do. Along with knowing how to make cream teas properly!

This week's offering for #TwitterTunesdays are two tunes written by Mr John Kirkpatrick, The Gazebo Trot and Brivetting in the Cauliflowers. I learnt them both by growing up as a morris child and marveling at both Shropshire Bedlams and Martha Rhoden's Tuppeny Dish.

@squeezyjohn I didn't realise he can't speak in the Commons. Not dodgy at all, is it? Having Secs of state, who aren't held to account.

This week's Twitter Tunesday offering, is a tune that I don't actually know the name of. Nevertheless is a tune I play constantly, and I learnt from a friend. #TwitterTunesdays #musician #folkmusicians #folkielife

It's Twitter Tunesday time again, and this week's offering, is a lovely little tune called The Idiot. Not too sure of where it's from, or who i learnt it from.

Video recorded in Rougemont Gardens, Exeter.

@squeezyjohn I feel sorry for pigs, poor little buggers being likened to the Tories!

To kick of Twitter Tunesdays, here is a bit of Fanny Frail. A corker of a border tune with a bit of a controversial song, which i learnt, from @BedlamsRhodens .

Morris Mayhem is still very new, and I'm trying to get it heard as much as I can. I'm still finding my feet as a performer, as it were, so please be kind. Not really sure what I'm doing to be honest, but having fun making it up as i go along.

I'm so proud to announce, MORRIS MAYHEM, is NOW out on @SoundCloud . It's been fun exploring my favourite, and some obscure tunes, in a different way. It's a morris playlist with a difference. No bells were harmed during the making of this. #music #musicians #folklore #folkmusic

@squeezyjohn The Midlands is just as bad, but don't worry, at least you don't have to worry about 7 bins anymore! Our council can't afford to pay for one at the moment.

I think this speaks for the state of the country right now, too.

On Saturday, i will be playing for Earlsdon on our annual tour. Can't believe it's tour time, again.
