Hi All,
First things first, no practice on Monday as it is a bank holiday... next
practice will be 13th May when we should also have some new people joining
us.
*1. Dancing out in May*
*2. Upcoming festivals*
*3. Other stuff*
*1. Dancing out in May*
So coming up this week:
We have the event on Wednesday at 3 Bankside (near the Tate) on the 7th
floor terrace. It starts at 6 so please be there as close to 6 as you can.
We will be doing all 3 dances as per the numbers last night and Martin and
Will will be leading music when we aren't dancing. There will be drinks
there, but no food. When we are done at 8 then we can go somewhere all
together for food - please send me suggestions and I can try and get us a
table booked.
I think there was a query as to whether we might be dancing in a pub
afterwards - I guess we'll see how we feel! If we do it will only be one
dance, as we'll all need to eat something! Shiny shoes please.
I am hoping to have figured out musician for 30th May (crawl and the City
by the River Festival) on Wednesday, so will update you all on that -
thanks for responses on the doodle etc.
*2. Upcoming Festivals*
We now need to make sure we have our ticket lists sorted for Warwick and
Whitby. Warwick need it by next Friday, so please make sure that you have
put yourself and any plus ones down on the sing-up sheet. If you could do
this by 5th May so I can double check it and send it off, that would be
much appreciated. If you are a maybe please commit ASAP. Partner tickets
will cost £45 (under 10's are free).
We have slightly longer for Whitby, but would be very helpful if you could
do the same for this as well please so it isn't a panic at the end of May!
*3. Other stuff*
Rachel-Anne sent round a doodle yesterday to get people's availability in
June for our Day of Dance, please fill in asap - and thanks to those that
have already done so. Please bear in mind that we are in Windsor on 22nd
June, so we can't do it then. It won't be the first weekend in June, as
Thrales are off to Wimborne...
Doodle poll is here:

Don't forget if you had a necker and pin at DERT for doing Westerhope,
please could you return it to me at some point.
And finally, watch out for a doodle soon for (probably) evenings to
practice the clog dance. As Becky and Ellie said yesterday, the idea is
that this will be to tidy things up rather than learn from scratch. Thanks
for the vid yesterday Ellie!
As always, the sign-up sheet is here - don't forget to fill in the upcoming
crawls etc.. I think I might start leaving it on the table at practice in
case that's helpful for anyone filling it out. Couple of new-ish things
inlcuding Mabel Day! and Bath Time! (Northgate would really like us to go)

Have a lovely week and see a lot of you tomorrow! 🍸
Thanks,
