I know that some of you are interested in strange customs from foreign parts so here are some pictures of our local Plough Play. The story is always the same - boy meets girl but is recruited to the army so girl need to find new boy. The girls are played by the hairiest men in the group. The play includes traditional songs and dances (including a sword dance). It doesn't really make much sense, but a good time is had by all and money is raised for charity.

Thanks for posting. Nice to see different activities in other places

Oh I love it, I love it!. Would love to be able to see in person. Thank you Sue for posting these./Lillian

I love to see the traditions from all over the world. And this tradition looks like it is so much fun. I wish I could be there to enjoy it with you.

What a Riot...do you and Mike participate or just enjoy the folly?
