Hello all,
1. North Wood2. Thrales May Day3. Respond!!4. Easter practice5. Day practices
1. Just so you are all aware, I have declined the North Wood Day of Dance, we just didn't have enough definite people and I wasn't getting enough enthusiasm about it to make me think we could scrape something together.
2. As I mentioned last night Thrales have invited us on a joint tour- I can confirm this is May 1st, a Friday night, in Hammersmith. They meet 7.30 to start dancing at 8 as standard, and they seem to crawl from further out back towards the centre (just so people have some idea). I suspect there will be more details later!
3. We have lots of Summer and even Autumn events that we need to reply to- if you haven't already please can you spend 10 minutes going through with your diary and giving a response- maybe is better than no response! I am guilty of this as well but it really does help us out :)

4. With Easter being the weekend before DERT we need to decide when to have a practice that week, please let me know when you are free that week and we can go from there:

5. Can I check that people's availabilty for day rehearsals is still the same?
Please consider the 21st, 22nd, 28th and 29th of March in particular:

Ken has very kindly phoned the train company re. Prices (please see below).
The rough idea is just over 35 quid for an open return which is pretty good! It gives people a lot of flexibility on getting home but means we're all sorted.
If you have a discount railcard please let me know asap. For example I know sue has one, I suspect some people have young persons..anyway, once wr have numbers they'll take that into consideration too!
Please let me know re. Travel cards asap.
Cheers,
Becky x

Just spoke to First Great Western.
The offer is £36.95 per person without taking into account the discounts for people with some sort of rail card, its also open return tickets so people can return when they want on sunday. This is about the price of people buying an individual ticket to and from Bristol now as prices have gone up slightly. Open return means I can buy a load of tickets and then they'll be valid for everyone to get home when they want.
Is this what people would like or should I buy one way tickets and let everyone buy another ticket for the return home?
I need to know who has a rail card as they take that into account when pricing the journey.
Please get back to me ASAP so prices dont keep creeping up.
Ken

On Monday it was decided that the return journey from DERT is up to each individual.Most trains are about £15 return (if ordered soon) and take just over 3 hours. If enough of you can decide on a return train early enough it might be worth looking into a 3-9 person discount card
Travel to DERT as it stands

Hello all,
Just 2 things today to consider:1. No to North Wood2. Greenwich Day of Dance
1. We haven't had many yes's to go to the North Wood day of dance as we did last year which is on the 9th May- unless we get any more responses then we need to say no
2. We have been invited to Greenwich Day of DAnce on Sunday 5th of July...in Greenwich. This might be a nice one to go to if we have a team as it is so close! Sounds like the standard day of teams getting together and dancing around Greenwich.
Please put it on the sign up sheet if you can make it.https://docs.google.com/document/d/11XHQc6j0g7HQto7rhOs6k0bfkw-XmFb8jmCe…
Cheers,

Hello all,
I have realised that Laura changed the date for her crawl organisation to
last week. This means we need a new volunteer to organise the crawl on the
26th.
Upcoming crawls are in Waterloo and Farringdon, so as long as you can do
somewhere else than there, excellent.
I would vaguely suggest the following areas, as we've not been for a while
or at all:
- Oxford street/soho
- Covent garden/7 Dials
- Aldgate
- Victoria
Let me know as soon as possible if you definitely can or can't organise.
Lindsey

Please take a look at my blog on Welsh folk songs - caneuongwerin.wordpress.com
Thank you for everyone who came along last night!
We made good progress getting Jo, Reesha and Kate through some more of the new dance figures and Sinead pressed on with Westerhope, including several figures involving six people!
Well done on all the work on stepping and smiling, I really though the Westerhope an double stepping was coming along well :)
We will be booking the train to DERT this week, I'll be in touch about prices, although I think Sue and I will be discussing if the team can cover costs.
See you next week.
