Dartmoor, Devon, West Country friends: The Chagford Mummers will be performing all day on Sunday, 4 January, traveling from pub to pub in Drewsteignton and Chagford. It's traditional, folkloric, silly, and free...but the players won't say no to a pint of beer. #Mumming #Folklore #FolkDrama
Poster: The Chagford Mummers present Gawain and the Green Knight, a Mummer's Play, in pubs on Saturday, January 4, 2026. Schedule: The Drewe Arms (Drewsteignton) 3:30 pm, The Chagford Inn (Chagford) 6 pm, The Globe Inn (Chagford) 8 pm. Fairly brief, very silly, free - offers of beer gratefully accepted. The image is a stylised Green Knight, with a photograph of a clownish Gawain riding a child's Hobby Horse toy. Photograph: The Green Knight, wearing a mask and a leafy green hat. Photograph: Bagpipe player, the Green Knight with drum, Gawain, King Arthur, and the Obby Oss (a mysterious horse-like Trickster).

Overdid it yesterday.

Today I'm sore and morale is low, gonna binge the 1996 "Journey to the West" Chinese folkdrama series while I take it easy.

This one has my favourite rendition of Tripitaka.
