The Morris Dance is traditionally danced in May to welcome Summer. But Sir Terry Pratchett posited a Dark Morris for the fall, to welcome Winter. The Dark Morris has been added to the repertoire of a number of Morris sides (dance teams) and is part of Steeleye Span's Wintersmith album. (Thanks to Mario for telling me about this!)

Oh, very good rabbiting.
Love it! The best thing about every first of the month is your rabbit painting.
You've outdone yourself, this is superb painting of a great subject. I'm enjoying the music while typing this! Thanks to both of you for letting me know about it.
You are very, very welcome,, Vicki -- and you just made my day by telling me you enjoyed the album. Now I'm sitting here with my hot cocoa, big smile (and a chocolate and marshmallow mustache) on my face, just looking at your Morris dancing Rabbit Rabbits. Life is good.
Hear, hear!
