Made it to see the Boxing Day Grenoside sword dancing (in Sheffield) this morning! Lovely to witness this 200 (ish) year old tradition!

Sheffield again tonight, drove through a part of town called Grenoside, which sounds like it was named by a Nazi ventriloquist

The Grenoside sword dance (north Sheffield) that dates from at least 150 years ago happens on Boxing Day & involves a mock beheading of the dance's captain. 👇

Singing tonight in the Festival of Village Carols in what appears to be the only building in Grenoside that has working electricity.

If you're in Sheffield, we can deliver by hand, on foot, to any address in the city within the area bounded by (or slightly beyond) the blue line. And Grenoside and Wigtwizzle. This might be useful for any last-minute Christmas orders (last day to order via this method is Sunday 22 Dec).

This was from Bracken Hill north of Sheffield down towards Grenoside. Long road the A61, it actually finishes near Exeter...😂

I'm likely to forget to post this on Boxing Day but I had a great time meeting the Grenoside Sword Dancers in Sheffield ahead of their annual Boxing Day dance.

One dancer has been doing it for over 50 years and another reckons their family link goes back even further.

Walk was in Grenoside woods today . Locals warned me off it as there's been a load of knife-point muggings up there in recent months. As if that would put me off like.
