Thread Name: Whittlesey Straw Bear 2008
Subject: Whittlesey Straw Bear 2008
So - who's going? Next weekend (Jan 11-13th in Whittlesey near Peterborough in Cambridgeshire)

My first Straw Bear and looking through the threads for previous years, I think it might be cold!! I'll be dancing with Rattlejag Morris from Retford in Nottinghamshire - so I'll miss my normal tatter jacket which can hide loads of layers underneath.

What about singarounds and sessions? Sounds like the Boat and the Letter Bee (or some such name) for singing; the Bricklayers if you like big noisy sessions and probably other sessions elsewhere. Anyone got any other info?

On the 2005 thread I really enjoyed reading the quirky account from the Times which IanC had gone to the trouble of typing up (post 20). Do look! (Honest. I will learn to do blue clickies sometime)
