And a wee update...
I'm trying to make things a bit easier to see, so crawls have a black
heading and non-crawls now have a blue heading to make them easier to spot.
Thanks for the suggestion Becky!
I've also declined, Black Diamond DoD, Brighton DoD and Saltburn festival
(apparently he is devastated..)
Priddy we don't have the numbers for this year, so that's a no - hopefully
another year!
Paddy's night is a no go as they don't want to pay the fee we are asking
(same as we were paid last time but they were hoping to only pay half again
as it was split between two pubs last time and it isn't fair asking our
musicians to do a gig for basically nothing when other gigs are available
that night).
Broadstairs - still waiting on a few people to respond to be sure as to
whether we could go... should know very soon.
So fewer things to look at and hopefully stuff stands out a bit better.
Suggestions for any other improvements to make things easier welcome.

Hi All,
Little update for the week.
Firstly - incredible amount raised on the dilly crawl last week - £242 can
we match that next week in the crawls??
I've bought some different sizes of *blue safety pants*, please do try
them on at practice and let me know what size you would like. Would
strongly recommend for dancing Piccadilly in particular - might as well
make it clear that it was safety pants not bum in the odd accidental
popcorn flash! They're pretty cheap as well (< £3).
*Westerhope Day Practice *in the usual hall 11-5 (I've asked to double
check about the extra hour as originally booked 10-4, but am sure it will
be fine!).
*DERT update*
Hopefully you have all sorted out your travel to DERT - please fill in the
spreadsheet to let me know whether you are sorted or not (and if you can
pop the ticket cost in there too, that will help Emma H tot everything up).
There is still one spare ticket on 1803 on the Friday valid with either
16-25 or 26-30 railcard - please let me know asap if you want it! If you
can't remember whether we bought one for you already, it will be in there
for you to check.

There are now evening tickets on sale if there are any more plus ones
lurking - please let me know if they need accommodation.
*Sign-ups*
We're slowly getting there!
*17th March* in middle of negotiations around the fee... though they want
to pay a lot less than we are willing to do music and dance for, so may not
end up doing it. Will update next week
*Broadstairs & **Priddy* - Becky is just reviewing these in terms of
numbers, so if you are still a no reply/maybe please look at that asap (I
may also chase in person if it makes a difference to her Go/No Go decision).
Can we now turn focus to 5th September -* London Folk Festival *which we
have enjoyed before. And the other key two to decide on are *Beverley
Fringe* (19-21 June) and* St Albans Folk Festival* (27th June) - if it's
one or the other please do say.
Plenty of other things on the sign-up sheet so please do fill those in
while you're there!

And finally - the DART fundraising ceilidh planned for 23rd April in C#
House with Nick Walden calling!
Thanks,
Hannah
