THIRTY years of tea dances in Halesowen had pensioners in an anniversary waltz at the Cornbow Hall.

The popular twice-monthly event regularly attracts up to 90 senior citizens and last week’s was an anniversary special.

Run by 86-year-old Joyce Foxall, with a membership mainly in their 60s and 70s, the dancers enjoy ballroom, sequence and line dancing.

Keyboard player Tony Roberts is a popular draw providing live music one a month and was there to hit a high note at the celebration dance.
