Hi All
*Travel*
I suggest we take the 0843 from London Bridge which arrives at 0949 in
Faversham. Please meet outside the Pret (No. 56 in the attached map) inside
London Bridge station at 0830 ready to go.
To come back, I'd suggest the 1552, getting back to London at 1700 or if
miss it, 1614-1734 (there is a train in between, need the slightly more
expensive ticket, £20.55 rather than £18.80 both with railcard). Martin and
I will need to be trying to get the first one. If you would like me to buy
your ticket for you and you'll be taking the 0843 from London Bridge,
please let me know by Wednesday 1200 - I'll book the £18.80 one unless you
ask otherwise.
If anyone is driving, there is free parking available at their festival
village (I think there is a rough map/description in the attached
programme), if you would like to use it please send me your reg plate.
*Then the order of the day will be:*
Procession, meet at 10, process at 1030 - I will bring the banner.
Then we have 3 spots each with 2 other dance teams - 1200-1300 on Stone St,
1330-1430 Post Office, 1445-1530 Stone St.
I'm hoping we can see if there is a nearby pub to pop into during our spots
as it's probably going to be hard going dancing outside and I'm not sure
that we'll have enough to fill that amount of time!
Apparently there will be portaloos at the spots, though personally I'm
hoping we can nip into a pub...see above :) (I'm not an alcoholic really, I
promise, though probably will be bringing a hip flask!) The festival have
said that they don't think it is possible to dance in the pubs because they
will be busy and hope that we enjoy the festival and will come back to
dance outside in turn-and-turn about. I think they did get that we much
prefer, and are better on, wooden pub floors but as they don't think this
is possible, they have timetabled us outside. So, let's go and make the
most of it, even if it isn't our ideal dance conditions
The centre is pretty compact, so we will easily be able to grab lunch in
the half hour gap we have around lunch time.
Thanks,
Hannah
