Hi All,

There will be a separate email about DERT related stuff, so please keep an eye out for that.

1. Upcoming
2. Sewing day
3. Sign-ups old and new

1. So, first event of the year will be the joint Piccadilly and Westerhope crawl next Thursday around Waterloo - details next week from the lovely Ellie. Following that we have the first Westerhope practice on 27th Jan.

2. Most likely day will be 2nd Feb - so there will be a call for kit to come in on the Monday before (28th). I think Sue will be emailing details for this. We may also make use of 3rd March, so please also put this one in your diaries. I've added these to the sign-up sheet as a reminder. If you didn't reply before, could you please add yourselves to these dates. Alternatively given the low response rate, just fill in the doodle: https://doodle.com/poll/abys8aixb8rfcbvy

3. Sign ups for the summer - we have a number of events that we confirmed before Christmas, but there are still a few to go - most of which will need a response by end of Jan or mid-Feb. So - could you please take a look at the following:
Wimborne Minster Festival 7-9th June
St Albans Folk Festival 29th June
13th July Hammersmiths 60th - they have sent us a reminder for this one... 

In terms of new invites, Lewes 10th Day of Dance (and final as the festival is no more) is on 12th October. Lewes is about an hour or so away by train - town centre close to the station. We would be dancing in pubs (yay!) and possibly also on the pedestrian precinct as well. They are hoping to get around 25 teams there for the final year.

The Hen & Chickens bar (that we danced at on our Christmas crawl) have also asked us to dance on Paddy's Day (17th March), unfortunately at the mo all I have in terms of info is that they would like us to dance... Am working on it at the mo, but thought I'd at least get you all thinking as this one (and a couple of others) ended up in Spam... oops!

We also had an invite to Hitchin Day of Dance on 20th July which given proximity to the Kimpton (6th) and Hammersmith (13th) invites, I think we will need to turn down this year - unless anyone has any particularly strong feelings. 

So, sign-up sheet in the usual place..

Have a lovely week.

Thanks,
