On the weekend, Barry and I went to Windsor to do a bit of shopping and see if they had my wedding ring in the shop there (they didn't, but they have it in the Georg Jensen on Bond Street, so we'll get it there). Anyway, while we were there, we saw these guys all dressed up in funny red and black and white clothing. They are called "Morris Dancers", and apparently this tradition dates back centuries. I videoed their first dance - click on the link below:

Pretty cool, eh?! We watched a few more dances and then went on our way.
Barry's surgery has finally been scheduled for the beginning of January. It's going to make it tight for him to fly out for the wedding, as he's not allowed to fly for 6 weeks after the surgery. I hope there are no complications!!
The weather has been quite wet and not particularly pleasant, I suppose winter is upon us. With any luck, we'll get a white Christmas, but I'm not holding my breath!
See you soon!
