[Pip] Fwd: Re: sheffield leg of lab/circa tour

[Dan]

Allo,

See message below.  Read the e-mail; it should make sense.

There's lots more to tell you about - but nobody else ever writes back 
to this list!  It's only ever lonely little me!

How did the meeting go?  When's the next one?  Is anyone coming to talk 
about G8/J8 yoof/Peace in the Park/Make poverty history/Speakeasy 
working together stuff on the 17th feb at 7 o' clock at St.Andrew's Hall 
on Upper Hanover Way?

Hello!?  Anyone?  Just e-mail to pip at lists.aktivix.org !

love
Dan

Hey dan
sorry for not getting back - well as it turns out we are having to 
juggle all our dates again - so its just as well we didnt confirm 
anything - Ive been thinking about peace in the park and I think we 
could do a kind of one foot in one foot out kind of dance thing with 
it ..
this is my proposal
1) We arrive in sheff on thursday and do street interventions in town 
Friday day and that evening do the caravan show ( its no longer a big 
top !!- but an exploding caravan) in a public space - a shopping 
precint or somthing similar - ( we would need you lot to suggest a 
suitable venue and help us get permissions etc)

2) Trainings - as its a 2 day intensive for 30 participants - its not 
really suitable to do it in a tent during a festival where people 
come and go - so i suggest we find a church hall/community centre 
/social centre etc .. and book it for the 2 days (Sat/SUn) ( a kind 
of NVDA annnex to the festival perhaps ??)

3) then on sat eve we do the second caravan show in the park at the 
festival in the eve...
does that make sense??

would be great to hear asap as we are juggling like crazy and need to 
get publicity out asap..
hope you are all well
love JJXX
