All sounds good, Ffion.
Will we be needed/should we offer to shake collecting tins along the parade route?
Could everyone who is not going to Whitby bring their sash to tomorrow's practice,
please, in case we need to borrow it for Patrick/Ru/MJ or whoever else might end up
playing for us?
Sincere thanks to Patrick (and you, of course)
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow

PS I think it would be good to go to the rapper workshop, partly to learn stuff and partly
to support Thrales, who have been so supportive to us. Is everyone else going home on
Monday? Could we all manage the Monday workshop too?

Subject: [Tower Ravens] Please be on time tomorrow (and some other things)
Hi all,
Some good news to start - we've some more information on the swords from Jimmie
Kilner and we've decided definitely to buy the set he's offering us so hopefully
we'll have them really soon. We can either have them posted or pick them up at
Towersey. Is anyone definitely going?
Patrick is coming to the beginning of practice tomorrow to give us a go through the dance
with a different musician so please remember to come ON TIME because he can't stay
long. I'll try and be there by 7.20 to have the room ready to dance in by 7.30.
For Whitby I thought we should agree on a weekend schedule. Here's a suggestion but
I'm very happy to change any of it depending on other people's plans. I can
probably lend you some tickets as Cathy from the band isn't coming up until Sun / Mon.
Let's discuss tomorrow and call Aisha from practice:
SATURDAY
4pm - meet somewhere along the parade route to watch the parade (if you want to watch
it)
6.15pm - meet everyone else at a specific point - tourist information?
6.30pm - tea together - fish and chips?!
8pm - crawl
11pm - go to last hour of ceilidh at the spa pavillion
SUNDAY
10 - 11.20am - we could all go to the Thrales workshop although I'm not sure
there's much point as we won't be able to go to any of the others together.
1 - 3pm - if anyone wants to go to a session Alistair Anderson is leading one at this
time in the Conservative Club.
3.30pm - afternoon tea
5.30pm - early evening crawl
9pm - finish up at the spa pavilion to see Thrales' spot and have a (ceilidh) dance
Last week at practice we did some good work on the new dance and practiced the following
figures, any case you want to think through them before tomorrow:
Walk on with swords pointing downwards
Put swords up at a slant one by one (as in beadnell)
Start walking round and 2 clashes
Single guard in 4s
Open ring
Number 2 ring
Display the lock whilst walking round twice (as in swallwell)
Break out into coach and horses
Mary anne
Cramper
Lock and nut
Finally, did we decide on a cake person for tomorrow? I'm happy to do it if you like.
Ffion x
