    Dear Shocked of Gloucester

    One must make allowances for native dancing.

    One has seen Fela's son, Femi, in concert whose dancers were possibly even more, ahem, African.

    One is recommended to prepare one's doilies and bone china, and site down for a little Darjeeling and Rich Tea biscuits, while dipping into one's Daily Mail. :-)
