Hello!
I could bring in my skirt tomorrow, I think we're roughly the same size :)

Hi all,
I'm not quite sure how this has happened but Laura and I realised last night that we've not got a reserve number 4 for York to cover Sinead. Becky can do 4, but that leaves us with no number 3 (assuming Lindsey can't make it). Kat, are you going to be at practice this Monday? Is your hand better? If so you could polish up 3 (you've been through the dance once, right?) which would give this option if Sinead's not well:
1) Katherine2) Laura or Janet3) Kat4) Becky5) Sue
Neither Laura nor Sue are going to be there next Monday, otherwise they could have learnt 4 to cover Sinead.
Can anyone think of any other solutions?

Hi all,
1-5 Just some updates on the hall info.6. General sign up reminders!
1. Recap of price being £10 per night per person with a deposit of £50 (which will be returned to us as long as the hall is undamaged and in good order)
2. It is about 20 minutes walk from the train station, and also 20 minutes walk from the first slot (sadly not really on the way to put our overnight stuff, but I am working on this!)
3. The mats they have are I think what would be used for dancing, so quite thick and sturdy but if people want to bring anything else to sleep on they might be more comfortable, currently waiting for confirmed number of these mats too.
4. They are absolutely fine with mixed gender sleeping there, so Katherine, Simon is fine to come along. Nikki is Ozzy coming along too? I do need to confirm numbers.
5. Lindsey or anyone else who may or may not be around you are fine to arrive on the night unconfirmed and we will give them an extra payment per person.
6. If you haven't looked at the sign up sheet recently, please do! In particular consider 11th September crawl with Black Heath Morris and 20th September One World Folk Festival.
I think that's all, sorry if I went somewhat silent. Turns out Cornwall is devoid of signal or wifi!
As always, any questions please get in touch.
Cheers,
Becky xx
Hi,
I am there from Sat to Tues may be stay on a bit as Chilts are doing their bit.
We are on the campsite so fingers crossed for decent weather.
It would be good if several of us will be there.
I am looking forward to going to one of Ffion's Gigs.

Hello,
Who's going to Whitby this year? If we have a team we could do a bit of a crawl like last year. Sue's there all week and I'm there Sat-Tues.

Hi,
I'm really sorry but I won't make it this week either. I've had a busy weekend and I won't be in any state to drag myself back up to London.
Sinead.

Subject: [Tower Ravens] Practise tonight

Hello all,
I won't be coming to practise tonight - I've pulled a muscle in my leg and don't want to exacerbate the problem! Sorry for that. See you all next week hopefully.

ALSO.
Some of you already know about this event, but for those who don't!
My partner, Ted, and I are releasing our début E.P., The Charcoal Black and The Bonny Grey, on the 3rd September!!! To celebrate we're organising an E.P. Launch gig at Cecil Sharp House. We'll be playing the songs from the E.P., along with stuff from our wider repertoire, and we've also asked a few other bands to support, including:
THE FANTASTIC Foxglove Trio (Ffion's band)Caz Forbes and Ste Moncreiffand Stick in the Wheel.
Please do come along - your support means a lot to me. And tickets are at the bargain price of £4 (that's £1 per band! Damn that's cheap.) You can buy them on the door, but you can also buy them advance from http://www.musicglue.com/cecilsharphouse/
If you want to find out more, you can go to my website: http://lauraandted.co.uk/I'll also be making a facebook event soon, so please join our facebook page: www.facebook.com/LauraSmythTedKempOr feel free to just ask me!
I hope you all can make it!

To all those going to York!
Thank you to everyone who has confirmed, anyone who hasn't please do. I have contacted the hall for some final details and will hopefully be booking next week. If you haven't confirmed you won't get a spot, although I will contact people individually after the weekend so don't panic!
Regarding trains:
Saturday morning at 8.00 from Kings Cross gets us in at 9.50 which should be enough time to get to the first spot in the centre at 10.30, although I suggest people are ready in kit etc.
Going home, the last spot is at 1oclock and there is nothing to say how long that will go on for.
I'd say trains from 3 onwards, I was looking at the 15.52, getting in at 17.45 as this gets us plenty of time to dance, see others dance, gather any stuff together and get to the station.
Hope that all makes sense. I am now off again for the weekend in the middle of Cornwall so will be essentially uncontactable. I will be back for practice on Monday though so can answer questions then.
Committee members please forward any accommodation information that people would find useful if it comes in before Monday.
Cheers all!Becky
Hi guys,
Just to confirm we will not be dancing at the Puzzle Party. Sadly we just don't have the numbers!
Sorry Nikki that it's taken us so long-not sure if you'd said we won't be able to make it.
See you all on Monday.
York people please reply-so far had Katherine, Janet and Sinead confirm.
Cheers!
