Bawming the Thorn, Appleton
Thelwall Rose Queen, Thelwall
21st June 2014

Two events this afternoon, so lets start with Bawming the Thorn


Lined up to start dancing Banbury Bill which usually involves an unsuspecting member of the public...

Poor girl... ...little does she suspect that...

...this happens!

We can only provide a curtain raiser for the event as we have to get straight off after dancing to...

Thelwall Rose Queen - 50th Anniversary


Leaving the Parish Hall Car Park, behind "Thelwall Mint" and before "Gold Rush"

We process past the Post Office

Disappointing crowds out today


A dance outside the Pickering Arms on the way back and as you can see the crowds didn't improve


The last leg of the procession, which is exactly how the team look - on their last legs

 This picture is a composite of two and it shows the whole team
L-R: Kevin, Rob, Geoff, Henry, Steve, Martin, Jasper, Malcolm, David (on the floor), Pierre, Del, Andrew and Rick

At the Pickering Arms


Starting off an Oddington Dance


Some with enough energy remaining to get off the ground on a "feet together, jump" move
