Hi all,
For this Thursday's crawl we'll meet at The Crown which is just south of Southwark station on Blackfriars Road - http://www.thecrownpubandgrill.com They do decent pub food. Please be there by 7pm and ready to dance by 7.30pm.
The list of pubs is below. I've got 4 yeses, 3 "if it's not too busy" and 3 waiting to hear back from the manager. If we're unlucky with the maybes there are three pubs near Waterloo we've danced in a few times before which might let us dance on spec - The Windmill, The Wellington and The Hole in the Wall.
Here's the facebook event https://www.facebook.com/events/1713618058873441/
See you tomorrow, Ffion x

Hi,
Yes, this is Nic's friend. Thought I'd mentioned it to Katherine a while back. Though I it's probable I dreamt it.
Deb was at the market a while back when it reopened after refurbishment, apparently she got talking to someone about us and passed on our details.
Hope that helps.

Hello Tower Ravens
We understand from our friends at Enfield Market that one of your side, Deb Borgan, has been looking for an opportunity to dance at the Market Place.
We're dancing there on Saturday morning 30th April, probably two spots at 11.00 and 12.00, and wondered if you can and would like to join us?
Enfield Market was relaunched last summer and has become a vibrant part of Enfield Town. We danced there last year (I forget when!) and we were well received.
It's not a paid appearance I'm afraid, but there might be a drink in it at the nearby Kings Head.
Please let me know if you're interested. If you are I can sort out the details later.
Regards
Jeff

Thanks everyone for your comments so far. I've had another look at the write-up, made some changes, and some new comments. See attached for the reviewed version as edited by both me and Katherine.
Unfortunately this second look has made me notice a few new things:
1. Nikki this will affect you - unfortunately the music from Sword Dance Airs III was actually chosen by Cecil Sharp, and they were not traditional to the dance. This means that we can't use Thro the lang moor or Warkworth Castle. I'm so sorry Nikki for not spotting this earlier. Please refer to the notes for alternatives.
2. The stepping - Please see notes on stepping in the write-up, and please see attachment for Grenoside stepping notation. If anyone can make any sense of it, let me know. If anything, it looks like they are double stepping...
3. I'm changing my mind about the Tommy and Betty issue. Please see write-up for reasons.
And does anyone know what circle guard is???
I'm soooooooooooo knackered. I feel quite ill. If I come tonight, I think I will need to leave early. I'll let you know.
Laura
I need to add in the references at the end and it all needs tidying up a little - but I'm knackered and need to go to bed....
I'll probably do a little more tomorrow if I can, but if you can let me know what you think in the meantime, that would be much appreciated.

Instead of getting blue trousers could we wear our skirts inside out? They've all got blue lining, right? And the top would be covered by the sash. X
