The calendar should now be 'public' so if you follow the instructions again, they should work. Please let me know if there is still a problem. I'll be at practise on Monday - so can help people with smartphones then.

Hi all,

Here's he video from Monday night. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cmls0mXnQ54. I cut the fixing the lock bit out to make it quicker to upload. Again, still lots of things to work on but it's definitely getting better. Please watch and learn! It's a good idea to watch once looking out for general movements i.e. do you know where to turn for each figure, once for sword handling e.g. are your hands going all the way up on 1 in pixies, and once for stepping i.e. is your style consistent with others in the set? If you want me to email you any individual pointers I can do. 

In addition to practicing stepping for 10 minutes a day please do some mental practice of the dance in which ever way makes most sense to you - writing down the figures / visualising your movements etc. Watching the video lots should also help with this. 

Some dates for your diary:

18 Feb - practice. Please bring skirts as we'll practice making them swirl at the right moments. We also need to sort out the Tommy routine so we'll try and do this before (and after if necessary) the practice on Monday. Come to the pub from 6.30pm if you'd like to help with this. 

21 Feb - crawl. Probably kings Cross area. 

25 Feb - practice. 

28 Feb - crawl. Possibly Tower of London area. 

1 March - (shameless plug alert!)  My band, The Foxglove Trio, are having a CD launch party in the pineapple pub, Kentish town and you're all invited. More details are on Facebook -http://www.facebook.com/events/212632882209461/

8-10 March - something called DERT is happening. Could be a laugh so I reckon we should give it a go... 

11 March - NO practice. 

15 March - possible social night out. Nic to arrange. 

17 - 23 August - Whitby Folk Week. We'll discuss a bit closer to the time how many of us will be at Whitby and other festivals over the summer.

7 Sept - Rachel's wedding in Cambridge. 

3-6 Oct - Tenterden folk festival. A relatively small but quite dance focused festival in Kent which Hannorah has suggested we apply to dance at. We can discuss this at a practice soon. 

19 Oct - Nikki's wedding in Oxford. 

Lindsey, I guess these should all go on the calendar but some people said they'd had problems accessing it. I think Jo said it was asking her for a password and she didn't know what to give. Is that right, Jo?

Think that's all for now. Enjoy your rapperless weekends and I'll see you on Monday!
