Hiya,
Here's the info for tomorrow's crawl in email form.
The Rocket - (7 for a 7.30 start) Maybe but let's start there anyway.
Somer's Town Coffee House - Yes (2 dances? If there's an audience
downstairs)
The Boot - Yes. She said it would be very busy, but we're welcome
The Harrison - Yes. Again all the tables are booked and it'll be busy
The Lucas Arms - Not keen maybe
The Queens Head - Strong Maybe
The first pub is pretty much equidistant from Euston and Kings Cross and
the last pub is closest to Kings Cross/St Pancras. Please be there and
ready to go at 7.30. (When I hear back tomorrow morning I'll try to book a
table as well)
Think that's it. Looking forward to smashing this!

Hi Ravens,
Business emails are back! This is a bit of long one, please persevere, it's
only actually 3 points!
*1)* Please do have a look at the *Sign-up sheet*
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/11XHQc6j0g7HQto7rhOs6k0bfkw-XmFb8jmCeRa4…>.
In particular, please could you double check that you have made and
recorded a decision one way or the other for the *crawl/social next
Thursday (28 Oct). *
There's also now options to indicate your interest in a Christmas
crawl/social (including at least one free drink!) on 17 December (exact
date tbc), a paid event on St. Patrick's day, a possible Mabel's Day in
December and DERT in March 2022.
Please feel free to add any notes about your decisions on the sheet (i.e.
'no because not keen on pubs at Christmas, on holiday etc', or 'yes this is
a great event, would love to go', or 'maybe, I might have a work event' )
or reply to me. This would be super helpful in making decisions on
attending events in general, but not required if you'd rather just say give
a decision and leave it at that. Equally, if you have no idea what an event
will entail and therefore can't make a decision, do shout.
*2) *A small reminder that the first Monday of the month (the next one is 1
Nov) will be *'new people night'*. If anyone new is looking to join they
will come along on this night so please be prepared to be extra friendly!
Anyone new will have been made aware of Covid testing request etc.
*3) *Finally, in the interest of making the sending of these emails as easy
as possible, I've tested out a new method of distributing and you should
have received this email twice. As such, *could you please let me know if
you have not received two emails*. You may need to check your junk box and
tick 'not junk'/'add to contacts' or similar.
Hope the rest of your week is wonderful,
Tori
Hi All,
Last little bit of business email from me before I leave you in Tori's very
capable hands!
*AGM Minutes / Actions* - please read through the minutes, or at very least
the action points and send me any comments before 11th October. See email
from 2nd October
*Kit check* - please check that your skirt and sash fit in the next week.
If it doesn't (either too big or too small) please bring along to practice
on *11th October*, Hannah TD and I will see what spares there are between
us and we'll try and reshuffle as needed. If you can't make 11th and your
kit doesn't fit please let Hannah TD know so we can look at sorting out a
swap.
*Events:*
- *Chippenham - *Yesterday evening we decided that given the minimal team
that could make it and a general feeling of it would be nice for our first
dance out to involve more people, that we will decline that invite - am
sure Martin Hanley will get over it!
- Northgate have announced that *Bath Time *will not be going ahead on 30th
October
At the mo, that just leaves us with sociable crawls for the rest of the
year, but it was suggested that we could look to do a day time crawl
perhaps for ourselves. The next crawl would be 28th October, which we could
try the more chilled 3-4 pub type crawl, so please do fill in the sign-up
sheet for that - sign-up sheet link in the WhatsApp group if you lose the
link, along with the code to get in and out of the gate at practice.
That's it from me, over to Tori for next weeks instalment!

Here's a video of the clog dance I was failing to teach! It's called (or
rather I call it) Ottawa waltz and makes a bit more sense with the music!
The tune is Crested Hen's but I imagine other French Canadian/French tunes
might also work.
Thanks,
Ellie

Hi All,
Please find the minutes from Monday's AGM attached. Despite a year of not
dancing much we appear to have ticked quite a few things off! Action Points
summarised below... Miriam, you've managed to end up with a fair amount of
actions despite not being there! Am sure Emma H will advise though!
One thing I wasn't clear on is when we were starting clog again... perhaps
Emma H can elaborate?
If you have any comments on the minutes, please send them to me by 11th
October.
See you Monday!
Thanks,
Hannah
