This historical event was re enacted in daylight in 1999. One of these places has something in common with Sheringham and it's not music. The annual competition is no longer held and was little known outside the area so forget that one. If you are sure you have the answer to what this event was, then carry on and set the next question because I have to go out in a few minutes.

Dan in martial arts!

Haha, you arent far wrong with that idea Dave.

  • White belt- the seed dormant under snow
  • Orange belt-the new growth
  • Green belt- the shoot growing
  • Brown belt- the powerful trunk of the tree
  • Red belt- the apple on the tree as knowledge develops
  • Blue belt (cho dan bo)- represents maturity, respect and honour
  • Black belt- represents mastery, dignity and serenity. It is also the end of one life cycle and the beginning of another.

Its really interesting once you get into the history and meaning of the art and the forms(patterns).

That's one interpretation - a bit more flowery than mine, and a trifle at odds...
