Hi All, 

Apologies for this now getting a bit messy. Another alternative for the 30th May is to dance after the first band at 1915 for a dance - which may be much easier!

I've created a new doodle, so if you could fill that one in instead please that would be much appreciated. Options are the 1830 festival opening slot, the 1915 after the first band slot, or some other occasion - the first two are the important ones. Apologies for this becoming a bit more complicated...

Hi All,

Thanks to those that danced yesterday evening, I think it went down well at the Jack Horner and was good to get a few more pubs in as well. Thanks to martin for a bit of shouting and Ellie for squaring them as we went along - and of course super well done to Miriam on your first dance out!

1. Coming up in May...
2. Kit 

1. Coming up in May...  yes it really is just around the corner!
Nothing coming up this week now, but we do have practice on Monday, and we have the event on 1st May at 3 Bankside. Aim to get there for 6, we'll do some dances, Martin and Will are doing some tunes there as well. There are drinks available, and once we finish at about 8, I would suggest going somewhere nearby for food - any suggestions welcome, it's not an area I am super familiar with!

On 30th May we should be doing a crawl, though there are now fewer people as yeses than there were before. We do also have a lot of no replies. Could you all please look at this and the doodle I sent yesterday about whether you would be able to appear at the Scoop for an 1830 dance spot or not. We need to get back to them asap on this. It would be fantastic if we were able to actually open the festival, but I appreciate that this doesn't work for everyone with work commitments etc. If we can't do it I will try and find us another slot.

2.Kit Recall / reshuffle
If you borrowed kit for DERT, please return it to whoever you borrowed it from. If you have a necker and pin from dancing Westerhope please also return this. 
Emma, when you are able to, would you be able to investigate getting Emily's kit back please? I think it might help with our current kit pressures.

If you are dancing on Wednesday 1st of May and are missing any kit (including awaiting a return) or would be without kit if you returned something, please let me know so we can work out some swaps. There are quite a few of us going, and I don't think all of those people have all their own kit...

We may need to look at kit again over the next few weeks to get us all sorted for the Summer, so please do flag any issues as soon as you can so we can sort them out. We are also hoping to do another order of T-Shirt/hoody merch, so start thinking about whether you would like any more...

Thanks,
Hannah
