Thanks to everyone for such a successful crawl, and especially to Laura for her immaculate organisation.
Get your guesses in here.........
Can you pass this on to Ozzy, please, Nikki. I don't have his address.

Hi everyone
We need to call an EGM to ratify a change in our constitution that would allow us to get a debit card. Under the terms of our current constitution we have to give 3 clear weeks' notice, so I'm proposing that we have a very short EGM during the break in our practice on 22nd February. Not ideal timing just before DERT, but hopefully it shouldn't involve much discussion at all.
I've attached the current version of the constitution and another with my proposed changes highlighted.
In order to keep discussion to the absolute minimum, could you please read the 2 documents carefully, consider the proposed changes and e-mail your thoughts/suggestions, if any, to the team? I hope if we can sort this in advance, we won't need any discussion on the 22nd.
Cheers dears

Righto folks
So suggest meet in the Old Eagle on Royal College Street for 7.30pm first
dance. They do cheap and yummy Thai food too if anyone wants to get there
early. Closest station is Camden Road overground or Camden Town. We'll then
be walking up towards Kentish Town underground.
1. The Old Eagle - Yes. Cassandra confirmed and Juan (manager) looking
forward to it on the night
2. Tapping the Admiral - Probably. Awaiting confirmation. Need to be there
before 8.30 as Whiskey Mick is playing! Spoke to Alex
3. The Grafton - Yes. Spoke to Jess, she’ll be there on the night. Come
about 9 as have a meet the brewer event at 7.30+
4. The Abbey Tavern - Yes. Confirmed with manager Harry by email. Spoke to
Ross.
5. The Lion & Unicorn - Probably. Awaiting confirmation but were very keen.
Spoke to Ryan
6. The Oxford - Yes. Spoke to David, the manager, he’ll be there on the
night
7. The Assembly Rooms - Drop in and see. Spoke to Anna. Maura is manager
8. The Pineapple - Probably. Need to call tomorrow. Spoke to Roger. Poppy
is manager
Could someone give me permission to set up an event on the FB page? Or just
pop the deets up if you can do it?
Thanks a mil and see you on Thursday

Hi everyone
I need to apply for a debit card for our bank account, not only to make occasional payments, but also to enable us (from February) to pay cash into the account via the Post Office. This will be particularly helpful, since my nearest 3 branches of HSBC have closed and it's currently a bit of a palaver to pay cash in at a branch.
This will require a change to our constitution as follows:
Current wording under Section 7:
Any cheques drawn against club funds should hold the
signature of two of the signatories in the bank mandate for Tower Ravens
Rapper.
Proposed rewording:
Any cheques drawn against club funds should hold the
signature of any of the signatories in the bank mandate for Tower Ravens
Rapper.
Hopefully we can discuss this soon, possibly even tonight, but I hope that it meets your approval. If not, could you please let me or the committee know asap.
Look forward to seeing you soon.

Hello Ravens,
I'm off work sick today, so won't be coming to the practice tonight - sorry! See you on Thursday all being well, and on Sunday for the Westerhope practice.

Hello all,
1. Trains2. Dance spot 18th March3. Strike around practice and crawl4. Sue re. hostel prices5. Silver Flame confirmed!
1. Hello all, please fill in when you would like to travel to DERT (as per previous emails) writing in the comments if you have any sort of discount card. I'm hoping this way we can maximise savings by grouping people together etc. Please fill this in ASAP as train tickets will just be getting increasingly expensive the longer we leave it.

2. Please can I remind people to look at the dance spot on the 18th March, we need to let him know if we're available to dance or not!

3. Nikki has been way more on the ball than me and mentioned that there are strikes planned for the week around the 15th feb. This will effect a crawl and a practice. I'm loathe to try and re-organise- again, especially since half the time these things get cancelled. If everyone could keep an eye on any updates that'd be great and then we can do emergency rejigging nearer the time/ end of January :)
4. For anyone not at practice last night- Sue has booked accommodation for DERT- she will be sending an email at some point confirming exactly how much everyone owes and when it needs paying by. We decided to subsidise the accommodation by 50% so the price will be about £30. If this is a problem please just get in touch with Sue, as always money should not get in the way of you joining in!
5. Silver Flame have confirmed that they will be coming to London to join us on the 16th April. At the moment we're putting organisation on the back burner, but I've asked where they are travelling to and from as well as any dietary requirements so we'll go from there. Nearer the time, all help finding pubs/places to eat etc. will be most appreciated!
Think that is all...
See you on Thursday at 7 at The Jack Horner, near Tottenham court road. Please be present and ready to start dancing for 7.30 (unless you've told Katherine otherwise!) According to my quick somewhat naff interrogation of people we should easily have a team for 7.30. Katherine and I weill keep an eye on our phones so if you're running late please let us know asap- we'll let you know where we are!
AND finally, please remember that Ru is coming to teach us more stepping...or judge how we've improved! That's this coming Monday :)
Thanks!
Becky
Hello all,
Quick thank you to everyone who came last night for the stepping practice, I hope everyone found it useful and has lots of things to go away and practice.
We decided to have next weeks crawl somewhere other than Victoria as Thrales are crawling there this week and we think it will make getting pubs harder. Laura W. is that ok?Are you able to organise a different area fairly easily?
Kate, Laura W. and Jo can you confirm if you can do the dance spot on 27th Feb? Simon has confirmed that Thrales can't do it so it'd be great to know if we can manage it.

Think that is all for now, see you next week!
