Morris - no longer an icon?

The media reported last week that Morris dancing ("along with the mini skirt and the double decker bus") is a cultural icon of England. But is it?

On the Icons site, the morris page, "has been withdrawn from the site".

That's typical really. Once we've done our thing, and had our bit of exposure, we get shuffled off. Time for a campaign?

It's still an icon - looks like the link was moved.

And what's more - they want pictures and anecdotes...
