Hi All
Only one more event this year! Our* Christmas Crawl* on 19th December. BEAM
was the charity chosen last night, Hannah TD is going to get in touch with
them for those that weren't there they help with action career action plans
fund any relevant training/expenses for homeless people. Could you all
please check the sign-up sheet is correct? I think someone the other week
said they can't make it but are currently down as a yes and I've completely
forgotten who it was!
It was also suggested that perhaps for the last practice of the year we
might go to the pub for the second half as it's Christmas. 🎅
*DERT*
I'm going to be making a group booking at the Travelodge asap (unless
prices have dramatically changed and premier inn ends up cheaper), which
should also allow us to adjust if need be. However I feel it will be easier
to remove rooms than add them. I think there are one or two people that I
need to check on for plus 1's / room requirements / coming in general and
will then get things booked.
If you haven't filled in Becky's crawl doodle, please do asap. there will
soon be a doodle coming around for day practices. We usually have 2
piccadilly ones and 1 westerhope, though sometimes it has been 2 of each.
Please fill in as quickly as you can when it comes.

*Sign-ups*
Thanks to those that filled in the sign-up sheet for the Burns Night
ceilidh spot - this is now confirmed.
We have invites one way or another for pub(s) on *St Patrick's Day* in the
evening. One invite from the person who used to work at Hen & Chickens
where we danced earlier in the year in her new pub (think it's the one
opposite Warren St) and one of the crawl pubs offered us potential gigs
along the Northern line in their pubs then as well. So... details TBC, if
you are free on 17th March in the evening, please sign yourself up. 🍀
We've also been invited to *St Albans Folk Festival 27th June*. We've been
a couple of times before, and although the Morris teams dance around town,
we tend to visit all the pubs and then join them for the Mass dance, which
I think this year will be at the start of the day. Very easy to get to -
about 20mins from St Pancras on the fast train.
Sign-up sheet here as always:

Hello all,
Absences: Emma H, Jo, Sue, Hannorah, Rachel-Anne, Hannah N might be late. I have a nagging feeling I'm missing someone, please let me know asap.
7-7.15 old clog
7.15-7.30 new clog (I know this timing hasn't quite worked out while the old clog learning has been so intensive I don't think there is any harm in making the new clog practice a secondary priority for a while). Hopefully we can make this more even naturally as we go along!
7.30 -9.30 Rapper
* If she feels confident enough, have Ellie L tumbling in a Jubilee, happy to just recap hand positions if you'd rather though!
* Westerhope - be good to boost people on numbers where they're not quite sure.
* Triple jump - ideally dance with this included.
* Piccadilly - in particular, give Fliss practice at 1
If there is anything you would specifically like to work on, please let me know.
Thanks,
Becky
