Some of you who mentioned that you might attend the Getaway have received a form letter from me. Answer via PM or here. Just trying to get a handle on how many are attending and what workshops people would like to see.

My own request - a workshop on Morris Dancing.I have never seen it performed and know that a few attending the Getaway are Morris Dancers.

SINS, have you seen 2005 Getaway Program Information?

You didn't volunteer for something, did you?
And if you didn't actually mean to...oops.

Men dancing in funny shorts waving handkerchiefs and clacking their sticks...I don't know Sinsull, somethings are better left alone.

But you'd spend good money to go and watch men in "shorts", shoulder pads and crash helmets run up and down a field chasing a pig's bladder filled with air. Or men throwing balls at another man who tries to hit it with a stick.

Manitas, the men with the shoulder pads wear Spandex(tm) and are quite worth watching, especially when they do that 'huddle' thing. If Morris dancers wore Spandex, it might be worth... oops - what the hell am I saying? Beer bellies, beards, and tight, tight trousers. Might be a song in there, but if it ever truly happened, I'd wait for the news report, preferably on radio.

In any case, I believe Manitas was suggesting a workshop on songs about sports. Are you and Squeaky coming? (I hope - I'd love to meet you both!)

At the risk of putting myself in more danger, all the information you have requested is in the thread referenced by Jeri, or by a PM to FSGW folks.

Yeah, I know. Just trying to catch up with a few who said they might make it and haven't been heard from yet. Thought you and Amos might need to be reminded that I will be at the Getaway, Mick. heh heh
HMMMM Amos and Mick in Spandex dancing with sticks - that's a thought.

Most of the asylums I've heard of disarm the inmates. You think it's OK to give out weapons?    Tw
