It would be interesting if the Men's group dressed as Howard, I believe that was one of his schemes in one episode.
It's really very interesting how diverse cultures develop similar customs. Growing up I had extended family who were American Indian (Plains) and was able to attend some traditional dance performances. They have a "grass-dance" in which they wear straps of bells around their ankles as well.

It was raining hard and our shoes were so porous
But the sound we heard barked just like a walrus
We took a quick peek
Along Holmfirth Creek
And spotted a convention of Noras
The fiddle player looks like he is dressed as Howard and the guy lurking in the shades at the back could easily pass for Tom .
NB
Any truth in the rumour that after you took the photo Terry you asked one of the ladies for a quick twirl around the maypole to which she replied "Do you think I'm daft pull the other one its got bells on ."
