Hi All,
Thrales weekend is this weekend, which will be followed by the AGM, so
there will be no practice on Monday. Little bit on sign-ups at the end, but
not too much this week (I'll do more on these next week).
1. Thrales Weekend
2. AGM
3. Sign-ups
* 1. Thrales Weekend *
*Friday* - drinks in the Monkey Puzzle near Paddington from 6pm. There is
food in the pub. No dancing, but great to socialise and would be great if
some of us can still be there when Silver Flame arrive at around 9pm.
*Saturday *- starting in The Clacken near Oxford Circus. Please be there at
11, dancing will start at half past. We'll dance in pubs around Soho,
before moving to Kings Cross around 1730, do some more pubs and then head
to the Blue Lion. Food should be ready at 7:45 - 8pm. Dancing and Session
might happen, so please bring instruments.
*Sunday* - Meet at the Knights Templar, near Chancery Lane at 12, dancing
until 5.
That should cover it all, but any burning Q's please let me know!
*2. AGM*
Reminder that our AGM is on Monday. We will start promptly at 1930, please
do bring snacks and drinks along, we'll have some cups and plates. Please
make sure you've read the AGM minutes from 2018 so that we can ratify them
at the start. If you spot any mistakes in them, let me know so that can be
corrected. I will bring copies of the Agenda and a copy of last years
minutes with me as well. If you are unable to make it and have things you
would like to contribute, please send these to Becky or me by 5pm on Monday
11th and we'll bring them up.
If you currently hold a position on the committee, you will have 2 minutes
to provide an update at the start of the meeting.
*3. Sign-ups*
- Firstly, *if you are new*, please feel free to add your name onto any
events that you would like to come to. It will be up to you and Becky to
discuss when you dance, but you are completely welcome to come to anything
on there even if you aren't dancing at that point. I'll try to remember to
add you all to the no-reply category for all new events in future as well.
- We have confirmed* Mabel Day*! I can smell the mulling spices...
*- Llangollen,* please do think about whether you would like to go to this,
we'll discuss more next Monday, but an early indication would be helpful.
We need to decide on applying by 20th November to have enough time to fill
the form in. If you have any conditions on attending such as I don't want
to sleep on the floor, please at that in then we can make sure we work
something out. It is only 3.5 hours away by public transport.

That's all for now folks, see you all soon! ☺

Hello all,
Absences: Fliss, Ellie and Rachel. Anyone else I've forgotten?
Clog: 7-7.30 Continuing the confidence battle. Will also run over the old clog in case we use at the weekend.
7.30-9.30 Run-through C# set (will make sure this is when Hannorah is around for tommying purposes).
Work on triple jump if possible and add a chorus before and after.
Look at Ellie and her tumble. All advice on this appreciated as although the tumble is ace, an issue with shoulders/height lead to sword to the face last week. Be great to get Ellie tumbling regularly but with everyone feeling confident about where the swords go afterwards!
Run through numbers for Thrales day so everyone feels really confident.
Thanks to those who responded to my whatsapp message. Can Tori and Ellie confirm when they're available?
Just a heads up that we will be meeting at Monkey Puzzle near Paddington on Friday. The plan is basically just after work, I will probably be there from around 6ish and get tea there. It is informal but be nice to have people there when you can make it. Silver Flame are arriving around 9, having people still there then is important 🙂
Starting pub on Saturday is tbc.
Thanks,
Becky
