- Probably the same Jag team as in January. After this we resolved that "out of Season “Jags were not the thing to do - Dave Markham
This was first year of the Sword dance
J Baker has Photo of Jag in Scunthorpe
Dave Barlow performed with Keith Constable- he remembers that Keith spoke the words instead of singing them- could this be when we performed the Jag at Alford Craft Fair in the Manor House grounds Aug 23rd?
Eric Stones has a square format colour photo of Jag team outside Binns.
