[Leica] Longest night

[leica at web-options.com (Bob W)]

It's quite possible that the dances are related. The English traditional
dancing that you see there is called Morris Dancing. The word Morris
supposedly being derived from Moorish - los Moros of Spain. Quite how it got
to England, if true, is a bit of a mystery.
