The technical definition of a long hike in heavy rain, usually through inhospitable moorland or over inconveniently large hills, either done by an organised group of people (almost invariably the Ramblers' Association) or over a route well-known enough to have become famous as a long-distance hike in its own right (e.g. the Pennine Way). Ian Botham's famous derwent from John O'Groats to Land's End raised masses of money for leukaemia research, but caused him to do enough long-term damage to his legs and lower back so as to pretty much ruin his cricket career a few years later. He was never the same player again.

Dursley

A 1920's dance that, for a short time, rivalled the Charlston. Unfortunately, due to a high number of sprained ankles, the Dursley faded into obscurity. It enjoyed a short revival in 1933 but the cost of the reinforced ankle boots (required to avoid said ankle problems) made it prohibitive for the working classes.
In 1975, the music for the Dursley was rediscovered by Richard O'Brien and incorporated into his musical 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show'. He changed the name of the dance and re-wrote some of the choreography but the tune stayed the same.
"Let's do the Dursley again" bacame the world-wide hit "Let's do the Time Warp again".

Mallaig
