Hannah! (Yet again). This girl has magic powers.
We have:
Laura. ?98
Rachel. ?117
Ffion. ?123
Martin. ?140
Sue. ?170

We actually made ?204.97 - an amazing total for a miserable night after Christmas. Well done everyone!
Hope you all have a great practice today and sorry I can't be there.

Morning all
Thank you all for a highly successful crawl last night and especially to Laura and Becky for their brilliant organisation. Hope everyone got home safely. My return journey was a breeze after all my misgivings (apart from the inevitably cancelled Southern train)
Still loving my card - thank you!
So how much did we collect? Get your guesses in here.

Is there anyone who is planning on coming tomorrow to the Mari Lwyd who is the keeper of a TR tankard? If so could you lend it to us to do a collection at the end of the evening? X

Happy New Year!
We raised an amazing £275.69 for the Trussell Trust on our Christmas Crawl
- a record breaking amount! So well done everyone - going to have to work
hard to beat that this year!
Keep an eye out for more info on the crawl on Thursday and any changes to
venue for the Sunday practice.
So business in no particular order...
1. Day of Dance
2. Sign-ups
3. Katherine's Wedding!!
4. DERT travel
1. Day of Dance - I've added 2 possible dates for this onto the sign-up
sheet, as there isn't much point inviting a team to a day of dance with us
unless we actually have a team... So, could you all please check your
diaries for 6th and 21st May and fill in the sign-up sheet. We haven't yet
decided on a team to invite (any suggestions welcome) - on this, I have
quite a large flat so would be willing and able to put a team up if they
were coming from further away and so needed/wanted to stay over (unless
they are huge and have a lot of groupies).
2. Sign-ups - we have a few events with some no-replies (including me on
some...), but hopefully now that it's 2017 we all should have a slightly
better idea of our own commitments now that Christmas isn't in the way.
Could I ask everyone to double check that they have put some form of
response to everything on there (even a maybe). In particular could you
have a quick look at 13th May Tredegar, as if we have a team for this Ffion
will need to do some leg work...
3. Katherine's Wedding - For those that are definitely coming it is
probably worth starting to think about things like travel and
accommodation... I know it's still a while away, but train tickets will
soon be available and there will be lots of other people wanting to book
accommodation. I think there is a discount on group bookings... so we could
look at doing a mass booking altogether. I will look into trains shortly,
but if people could think about when they might like to travel etc.
4. DERT travel - Again, tickets will soon be starting to become available
(still waiting on the advance tickets at the mo) - so if you could start
thinking about when you would like to travel up / what time you might like
to arrive. I know some people like to take half a day or a day off and
travel up during the day at their leisure and some people would rather save
their holiday for other things and so will travel after work. If you could
start thinking about which category you are likely to fall into we can
start trying to work out how to group people for the best possible
prices... :)
5. Mari Lwyd -

Thanks everyone and see you Thursday!

Laura W has managed to get us a practice space in her community centre!
Abbey Community Centre, 222c Belsize Road, NW6 4DJ
the nearest station is Swiss Cottage or West Hamstead, on Jubilee and Thames Link, as well as Kilburn High Road Mainline (easy from Euston) and Kilburn Park - Bakerloo.
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Abbey+Community+Centre/@51.5393781,-0.1…
As it is further afield than the church can I suggest meeting at 10.30? Having had a quick scan I can't immediately see a supermarket round the corner so if people can bring lunch with them they'll get the best break, I'm thinking if we have a solid hour in the middle to give people a proper sit down and head space.
I'd quite like to keep going until 5-5.30 although from previous experience there's normally a natural end to these things anyway if people are really flagging and we're all just bumping into each other.
The more people the better and means we can really make good progress with both Piccadilly and Jubilee/tag team in and out for rest periods etc.
I know there might be some people that can't make the whole day, if this is the case can you let me know please!
P.s. If there are any changes in times I'll let you know ASAP.
Sue we owe the centre £98 (I thought on this occasion it was worth paying) apparently we can pay by BACs, cheque or in cash so i leave it to you as to which you think would be best. Let me know if you need any further info.
Hannah can you cancel the hall for Sunday just so they know we're not around. Might be worth just saying we had a last minute opening that meant we could practice all day?
Thanks,
Becky
Hello all,
Just wanted to say a huge thankyou to everyone for turning up last night. It was really amazing that we had over two sets despite the strikes and rain and post Christmas lethargy!
My plan for Thursday is, as much as possible, to have the Dert dance alternate with Jubilee. Due to numbers some dert people will have to dance jubilee but I'm hoping to make it fairly balanced. Laura W. is organising the crawl in Bermondsey, watch this space for more information once she's run round persuading people we're awesome.
Sunday- at the moment we are booked into the church hall from 2- whenever, although the latest I'd want people to stay is 7 and with it being Sunday I can imagine it will be earlier.
The two Laura's are both following up on if we can have other places, which we could have for the whole day (more like 10-6). This way we'd have a lot more time to progress with the dances and we can have a proper lunch break in the middle where we all chill out. Fingers crossed for one of those, again watch this space. If we do end up with the longer day but you can't make it for the whole day please let me know as soon as possible. I chose the date as we definitely had two sets although I know there are now a couple who can't make it/ can't make the whole day. The more people we have the better though!
I will be focusing in on getting the DERT set as precise as possible but the aim is to then have other people who are learning Piccadilly come in and learn the little changes we'll be making. Numbers allowing, at the same time Rachel will be working on the Westerhope set. And again having made any decisions on timings etc. we'll be able to swap other people in.
Thanks,
Becky
Hello all,
Aware strikes are going to make getting to practice difficult for some people. In particular if you are in the dert set please try. There's is a crawl on Thursday and it'd be nice to be more prepared!
Anyone who isn't in dert set don't worry as much, especially with longer journeys.
Kate know this is quite late. If you can make it great if not we'll be alright. I'll chat to people about Thursday xx

Hi everyone,
Apparently although today's tube strike is finishing at 6pm there's going to be a severely reduced service for the rest of the evening and tfl is recommending you complete your journey by 6. I presume we're going to still try and practise tonight with those of us who take trains/busses/bikes home but it would be good to know earlier if we don't think we'll have enough people!
Hope to see you later,
Ffion x

I know you were asking if people wanted personal insurance. I'd say unless anyone is in the process of sorting that it'd be good to get this done
