> 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.
