Subject: RE: Whittlesea Straw Bear 15-17 January 2010 (UK)
The guest list is not quite finalised yet, contracts have to be returned. As soon as the list is complete we will get the web site updated. As far as pictures from 2010 go that will be difficult as I don't know any one who took pictures this year. We don't have time to take pictures as we are all running around doing stuff, you can imagine what it was like this year!!! We will try and post some new ones though. The Council said some time ago they will do the job properly next year BUT that was before the general election. The Straw Bearers still have all the kit to close the roads in store but it is a heavy job requiring a good number of fit volunteers. What ever happens the bear will be on the street on the 15th January. As far as Wetherspoons are concerned they will play their part in their prime location but we will have to wait and see if a session in The George happens. Whatever the outcome the Market Place is looking better already. Just the Old Post Office and Solicitors Office to go. Gan Canny Brian
