Hi Ben
Thank you very much for inviting Tower Ravens to your Day of Dance next May.
I note that the deadline for replies is tomorrow, so I'd just like to assure you that we haven't forgotten about it. We'd love to join you and we think we'll have a side available; we're just waiting to confirm the availability of our musician.
Do you need exact numbers now, or can it wait until you need the deposit next month?
Although we can dance on hard surfaces, rapper is far more effective on wooden floors, so would it be possible for us to dance inside the pubs where possible?
Looking forward to see you all at the Dacre Christmas bash, if not before.

Hi All
Please find attached details of The North Wood Morris Men Day of Dance
2014
A DAY NOT TO BE MISSED
Look forward to hearing from you. Hope to see you there.
Regards
Ben Roberts
Assistant Bagman - Day of Dance
Hi all,
Another invitation to dance out next year. I've put the date in the spreadsheet. I think dancing rapper on cobbles is out of the question so we should probably ask a bit more about the day and the other dance spots before committing to anything.

> I hope you all had a fabulous 2013 with plenty of dance outs. We were rained out on more than one occasion but on the whole it was a rewarding season.
>
> I am now starting to plan for the Leigh Folk Festival 2014 with committee sessions getting underway and initial plans being put into action. I am therefore delighted to invite you all to come and dance at the Leigh Folk Fesitval 2014.
>
> This year the festival will run from Thursday 26th June to Sunday 29th June. You are invited to come and join the main day of dance on Sunday 29th June which will follow a similar format to last year.
>
> This year we are placing a special emphasis on the procession which we would love to raise in prominence and make it the real centre piece of the day. I have enlisted helpers to steward the processional route through Old Leigh High Street and able assistants to enforce a noise shut down from all the band sites. The more sides we have joining in the procession the better it will be so I would encourage everyone to take part. I know it can be tricky and somewhat precarious to dance on the cobbles so if you feel you cannot dance the route, please join in and walk it. It really is the highlight of the dance day and I would love to make it into the spectacle it once was in years gone by.
>
> I very much look forward to hearing from you soon and hope that you will be able to make it on the day. Please let me know as soon as you can one way or another so I can plan accordingly.

Hi all,
Looking forward to seeing you all next week! I was talking to the "bag" at Flagcrackers yesterday, she and the rest of the team would like to invite Tower Ravens to their day of dance next year, I think it's going to be in June, we would be the only rapper side there, but there are several other teams booked.
I need to double check the dates and some other details, but what I know for sure is that the dancing will take place in Skipton on the Saturday, and Sunday there will be a short walk in the surrounding areas, all teams are welcome to join Flagcrackers for that, but obviously if people needed to go home that's fine. There is no accommodation provided, but there is a nice local campsite in Cononley, I've stayed there before, it's 4 minutes away by train, and if you aren't up for camping there are plenty of places to stay in Skipton.
I know it's quite far away but I thought I'd give it a mention just in case, there's no rush in deciding if we want to or not for the moment. I'll check the details for next Monday if you are interested and if there's anything else you would like to know for then just send me an email.
See you soon,
Aisha x
P.S. Rachel, I have the money I owe you, I'll bring it on Monday.
Hiya,
Maybe I should have put this in my previous email, but you are all welcome
to the housewarming / very-early-Christmas party that Dan and I are hosting
on Saturday 30th November, 7pm onwards, with tasty mulled wine. Hope to
see lots of you there!
Note that it clashes with the Saturday evening pre-Mabel Day, so if you'd
all rather go dancing in Oxford, I understand! ;)

Hi all,
We'll run through this some more tonight, but here's some info on things
we've been invited to, just to get this in one place and a bit more
organised:
- - - - -
1. NEW INVITES
(a) MABEL DAY - 1 DECEMBER 2013
Our official invite for Mabel Day: "It's our annual afternoon of dancing
and cake-eating round the pubs of central Oxford, on Sunday December 1st. We
also usually tour round a different area of Oxford the Saturday evening
beforehand, and if you'd like to join us for that too it'd be lovely :) I'm
afraid that, being a rather scattered team (geographically, speaking, but
also wits-wise) we don't have any accommodation in Oxford to offer you (in
fact, most of us are also wondering where we're going to stay...) Drop us a
line if you're interested in joining us on either the Saturday
or the Sunday!"
We know we've a team for the Sunday. Do we want to do Saturday night as
well?
(b) CHINGFORD WASSAIL - 4 JANUARY 2014
They say "We would like to ask you to our Wassail on January 4th, Town
Mead, Waltham Abbey, there will be dancing, music and eating and drinking."
- update from Sue is that this will be from 7.30/8pm. We should reply to
them soon!
(c) CHINGFORD GENERAL DANCEOUT
They also say "We dance out at local pubs on alternative Monday evenings
between May and July - would you be interested in a dance out with us?" -
is this something we are interested in? Shoul we suggest potential dates?
- - - - -
2. UPDATES
(a) NORTHWOOD DAY OF DANCE - 10 MAY 2014
This has been in the calendar for a while, however the signing up deadline
is NOVEMBER 15th, which is Friday, so please please do make sure you are
signed up if you're available! I think it would be a really fun thing to
do.
Sue says "It's a great day out in the Surrey/Kent Hills; coach transport
between great pubs at places such as Penshurst and Limpsfield Chart,
although the exact itinerary changes from year to year. All very pretty
and green at a lovely time of year. However it's mostly morris, so they
don't cater for wooden floors. Dancing is outside, although we could
always dance indoors if the floor is more suitable."
(b) CINQUEFOIL DAY OF DANCE - 18 or 25 JANUARY 2014
We have suggested these two dates to Cinquefoil and are waiting on an
answer from them. Do keep signing up though!

See you all tonight!

This is Carol's address:
carolwoodward(a)hotmail.com
Could someone add her to our mailing list, please?
Apparently we should have received another invitation, this time from Chingford Morris, whom we met at Tenterden. I'm not sure how or where it was sent and why we didn't receive it, but that now makes 2 invitations we never received. We probably need to review the situation, as we may have missed others too. Unfortunately I'm far too computer-illiterate to volunteer any help here.
Their invitation is for Wassailing on Saturday 4th January 2014 at Waltham Abbey from 7.30-8 pm onwards.
Can we discuss this tonight, please, along with Northwood's invitation for Saturday 10th May 2014 (attached again).
Please complete the spreadsheet if you haven't and you can find it (which I can't).
Look forward to seeing you tonight

Hello all,
There is a church meeting in the hall this evening. It should be finished
by 7.30, but just in case its not, we may have our 1/2 time discussions
about dates before practise in weatherspoon.
So - if you get there at 730 and there's not the right people in the hall -
come to the pub!
Lindsey
