Hi All,

Firstly, Congratulations Laura!!! Such a lovely wedding - in fact one could say Glorious!, and thank you to everyone who danced/played/tommied on Saturday. Laura very generously provided us with some Gin, some of which we drank at practice on Monday - but there is still some left!

In other news:

1. Northgate Day of Dance
2. Thrales Day
3. DERT
4. Westerhope

1. Northgate - We will be getting the 0902 train to BATH from Paddington, which will arrive at 1039 (This does mean we'll be early, but the other option is being late...). Those of you getting the train. Please gather near the top of the escalators at Paddington from the underground opposite platform 4/5 at 0845
For those driving down the meeting pub is The Bell Inn ~16 minute walk from the station - please be there by 11.30 ready to dance at 12. Once all teams have gathered (and done a dance?) we'll be going off on crawls in pairs (we're with Mabels) - with our last dance in the Raven! Once done everyone returns to the Westgate for the evening (unfortunately we wont have a team for the last dance (sorry!) but should be fun anyway) - where you can buy food if you want to.

2. Thrales Day - or Thrales Weekend I should say. Not much further to add for now other than we will need to be at the Feathers, Westminster at 10am on he Saturday. Will provide more info next week. On Monday we will do the Beadnell that we came up with the other day so everyone can see what the current plan is...

3. DERT - I've booked us into the Kendal Youth Hostel - link here (http://www.kendalhostel.com/if anyone wants a gander. If you haven't filled in the doodle poll for DERT practices please do so that Becky can decide when they are. 

4. Westerhope - As Laura S can't make every practice (and as agreed at the AGM) we need someone to help with teaching Westerhope - are there any volunteers? If you would like more info, I'm sure Laura will be happy to ask any questions.

Think that's all for now. Have a good week and see some of you on Saturday!

Hannah :)
