Subject: RE: Whittlesea Straw bear 2013
We have some thoughts about the weekend.

Firstly we thought the Saturday was fantastic and seeing two little bears was something new. However watching the morning procession we thought the Little bears we're putting more effort in to their dancing than the big bear who seemed to have trouble dancing in time to the music.

Saturday afternoon we caught up with bear outside the Factory shop whilst eating our amazing Fish and Chips and WOW! It was Jumping, Dancing and was a completely different animal for earlier.

Please Please Straw Bear can we as the public have a true dancing bear? We felt cheated last year.

Saturday night and Sunday's layout.

We felt rather sorry for Heddingham Fair on Saturday night as knowone really knew they were there unless you went to the toilets.

Maybe adopting the entrance used to view the dance teams outside on the Sunday would have been a better idea.

Sunday.
The seating was awful yes ok it was a new thing but being spoken to like children by the MC time and time again wasn't very nice infancy the family sitting next to us said "that's it we're off I'mbot standing for this".

Maybe keeping the chairs as they where in previous years could be a good thing and moving the band on to the stage or into the bar area could help.

We did like the rotation of dance teams as you often see them looking board because they want to do more dancing. (Work on thousand it'll be great)

Apart from that we had a good time and can't wait till next year.
