If not, then I don't know where it went... It was smaller than the one she had - so she possibly has 2? I have 2 petticoats - one in slightly better repair than the other. I also have Sineads old sash and my sash (so 2) - both about the same sort of size... I also still have the dilks old skirt (spare) - which I probably should have given to Kate by now really... I know it isn't directly related to the specifics above, but we need to figure out what we are doing with the Westerhope kit. (Ideally if we can make use of existing shirts that would be good so I can avoid having to have bought 2 (potentially) shirts that I will never wear...). Just checked - I still have my tie (adjusted so it doesn't look like I have a willy when wearing it).

I think if we keep doing that at a solid 140 we should get really comfortable with it and then the whole thing will be awesome <OutlookEmoji-😊.png> Special thankyou to Kate, I know how hard playing to a metronome can be, especially if the speed has ended up being faster than you're necessarily used to (as turns out our dance has always been faster in the second half!). Kit - Sue made a very good point about joint jubilee for the showcase - do we have enough petticoats and sashes?? Please correct this list if it is wrong for what people currently have and will be dancing in the double jubilee: Katherine: petticoat and sash Jo S. : petticoat and sash Hannorah: petticoat and sash Laura S: petticoat and sash Becky: petticoat and sash Hannah: petticoat and sash (x2 for both??) Laura W: petticoat and sash Reesha: petticoat and sash Ffion: petticoat and sash Rachel-Anne: sash?? If that is all correct it's only Rachel-Anne who we need to sort out. I'm assuming she could wear one of the petticoats that Hannah has as the beauty of elastic is basically one size fits all! Not absolutely sure you have your own sash in which case are there any going spare anywhere? Or can we steal/convert a man sash? Rachel I know you're gutted you won't be dancing but you'll be so preggers by then I don't think it's worth the risk. I want to work a way of getting you in for the final curly - and display at the same time as Sue, if that is ok with you? I know you were talking Sue last night about figuring something out so I'm basically leaving that to you. Potentially your sash doesn't need to be exactly the same so we don't need to worry about identical fabric?? Please correct if any of this is wrong so we can fill in gaps as soon as possible. Fabric is very limited! Saturday: 10AM Westerhope Start. We're rubbish at starting with people dribbling in for the first half hour. Please, please really try and get there for 10 to get shoes on and be starting ASAP. Kate I know you're coming from far away and as musician we don't necessarily need you first thing, 10 would be lovely, if it's 10.30 it won't be a disastor or anything. Westerhope team will then practice solidly until 12-12.30 and then break for lunch. After this the DERT set will steal Hannah back to work on Piccadilly but Westerhope will continue to work on the dance. Potentially with some swapping in and out of people. Westerhope set I imagine will stop around 4ish, DERT set probably more like 6 (but we'll just have to go with the flow). DERT set 12.30 arrival: I will be there for the entire day to try and help with Westerhope, if anyone else wants to do that please do come along, we know how useful spectators are! If not please arrive for 12.30 where we will have lunch and talk about what we want to do with the next few hours. At some point (helpful I know!) I want to do double jubilee as we will actually have everyone there! The main focus will be getting Sue and Rachel in at the end (need to try and remember what we did that one time..) and just practice that a few times till we feel confident. And then do the dance through a few times together with the ending. I will also look at the numbers available and try and figure out sets so we can practice in those sets and make sure they're fairly balanced. Hannorah - I'm sorry to hear about your chest it sounds awful! Let us know if you can't make practice on Saturday, there's no point hurting yourself further. Hope that all makes sense. I'm not sure if everyone is in a position to buy tickets to Kendal yet but if possible to get this sorted sooner rather than later we can figure out exactly how much we can give people back. If possible can we have them bought by next Monday??
