Printed by AC's - Almost Country for Boris Johnson & dedicated to all our lock-down dancers who, like me, are confined to home and every day we wake up and find "It is the morning of the day, I sit & watch the children play, smiling faces I can see but not for me. I sit and watch as "tiers" go by....." etc etc etc.
