And... now for something completely different... 
The Regency-style Summer Ball!
We learned some Regency dances  (My Lord Byron's Maggot, Strawberries and Cream, Zephyrs and Flora and the Duke of Kent's Waltz) we organised a few songs of the era, we ran up half a dozen Empire-line dresses and borrowed some fancy waistcoats - and there we were!  It was the evening of the 1st August, 2015, balmy breezes, a great audience who joined in the spirit and the dancing, and an elegant supper served on the terrace.  A lot of fun.  We will be doing it again!
