As the nights get cowder
Above Hope Bowdler
You munna go alone
To the owd Gaer Stone

To avoid owd Nick
There is a trick
And to begin
Dance widdershin

Thrice round the stone
Whilst chunnerin in tone
“Who is the best?
Memories of Shropshire I guess”

I've several stories about the meaning of a 'tuppence dish' - wondering if you have a definitive one (and who was Martha Rhoden anyway)? 😱

Apparently Martha was a potter whose pots turned out a bit wonky and the Morris team have a handkerchief dance named All Asident so they took their name from the saying.

But were they as wonky as one of Martha Roden’s dishes?
