At 10.44am, the bagman of the Ewell St Mary's Morris Men planted a flag showing a white dragon on a red field outside the Lamb Tavern to advertise their annual dance. At 10.46 a gust shot up the wind tunnel of Leadenhall Market and toppled it. 'Too early for a pint?' one of the dancers asked. It is never too early for a morris man to start drinking, especially when it is raining even inside a covered market — the chilly April showers came in horizontally — but these were hardy souls and a crowd had started to form so they began to jump and skip, as much to get the blood flowing
