In view of the fact that at least two of us won't be there tomorrow, here's notice of an invitation I received from Northwood Morrismen for our consideration. Their next Day of Dance is on Saturday 11th May 2013 (tbc - they actually said the 12th, which is a Sunday)
It's a great day, basically a ready-made tour, which would involve practically no organisation, except getting to and from the start point near Croydon. Everyone gets on a bus that transports us through picturesque countryside to some lovely Kent and Surrey pubs, where we either dance or not, as we choose. Hot lunch is laid on at Penshurst.
There's a feast in a scout hut in the evening, which we could either attend or not and Saturday accommodation is available in the scout hut. I'm not sure what happens on the Sunday - I've only been there for the Saturday. There are usually about 6 or so sides in all, including Blackheath Morrismen and Old Palace Clog (where a few are interested in rapper and we might recruit one or two).
Dancing would be mainly outside on hard surfaces. It's all very relaxed; not many punters as a rule.
Not sure about the cost - it's usually very reasonable.
They are very keen to have a rapper side, which would be a novelty for them and advertisement for us. It tends to be mainly Cotswold, with a bit of North-West.
See you tomorrow

Subject: [Tower Ravens] Practice Tomorrow
Hi All,
Most importantly, Rachel is bringing cake this week.
Practice is as normal this week (there's not enough notice to bring it forward) at 8.00pm, with food in the spoons next door from 6.30pm.
Results from Doodle with regards to bringing it forward to 7.30pm is 5 yays, 2 mays, and I'm assuming a fair number of mumblemumbles. This is a majority yay, but there's still time to vote and object.
Could you all fill in this doodle poll for availability for coming practices?
