Clogs and shawls ahoy - the June 2005 Northern meet-up

Ladies,

As discussed, my arrival in the lands of the north clearly warrants a gathering of the northern Junies Feel free to instruct me on:

  • clog wearing (noting I have lived in Holland so know a bit about this)
  • morris dancing in yellow and black rags, as witnessed in Otley
  • using a horse and cart for transport, as witnessed in Bradford.

In return I can offer hints and tips on living in a completely flat place, pig farming and the horrors of having a sugar beet factory nearby. (The smell made me gag big time during my first trimester).

Anyway, on a more serious note, consideration should be given to:

  • weekday v. weekend
  • babies + others?
  • location. I did have a thought that Hebden Bridge might be fun, being half way between Leeds and Manchester. But a bit more problematic for Sheffielders and Yorkists (and particularly EYM if she was up for a visit from Hull).

I arrive on 7 November, and my preference would be for late November, i.e. before I return to work. But let me know what you think.

Do you want to rearrange it for another day? I can email Trib and see what she wants to do. EYM, what do you think?

re-arranging go for me, think its just this week and next week that DH is going extra work, will check and get back to you.

Ooh ladies, what am I going to do if you all leave me on my own in the bleak wilderness that is Yorkshire? (Answer: review some documents for a Polish friend of mine in the States, but that's another story).

Anyway, another Wednesday is fine for me also, I am back to [tax paying] work in a depressing three weeks from now, but will still prob be able to arrange to meet up with the small one; without him tragically will be even easier! So if we want to name an alternate date that's fine with me.

If others still want to meet on Wednesday, I'll be going into town anyway to meet up with my boss, let me know.
