STILL WITH MORRIS DANCING ON MY MIND

Billericay folk treasure their Mayflower Morris Men who were on top form on Sunday evening for Tony Motley's surprise birthday party. He had not the slightest idea that so many well-wishers were waiting for him at the Ivory Room - all dressed in their finery.  Although in mufti, he (fortunately) always carries his beautifully  bedecked tifter in the car and here he is, performing with his pals. Not the quiet dinner date with his family he anticipated.  But we certainly enjoyed celebrating with him.  Happy birthday, Tony.
