You thing this illness might be a staffer thing? It could a bad dose of staffitis with three victims at the moment(mcp, bluecat and myself).
I just want you all to know if i die( and i dont feel like im far away at the mo) you can use my body to create and antidote to save the rest of the staffing nation

hmmm.
haaaommmmeennmmmmmmamammmmm....
(just wating for the phone call back confirming the space)
as far as videoing it goes... we were hoping to video the whole lot, and put out a dvd based, but not exclusively based on the weekend.
this would obviously be a little pointless if everybody filmed it and then edited and threw onto the web.
would it be too much to ask for people to film and keep to themselves?

hey, queen. QUEEEEN!
(something exciting)
venue choice no.1 say they can't confrm for 6 more days at least. te POOKa managenment says 'f8ck it, go with it anyway, we can always find a new venue'
so
april 16th and 17th it is.
cost will be £35 non-euros.
confirmed teaching staff: me; moseph; antti;
unconfirmed teaching staff: knoxious;
two replacements lined up just in case, both mighty fine staffoids.
up for debate:
workshop format;
at present, in an eight hour day, i am reckoning on about 1 hour arrival and warm up, then divide into two groups, and do a 90 min class. then lunch(45 mins), re-warm up and another 90 min class. then 1hr break/jam with advice from tutors, then final 90 minute class. this leaves us 45mins spare so each section can take slightly longer if needed(and you hippies are slack timekeepers anyway!)
then day two something similar, with maybe a small show at the end if i run a particular worksho i have brewing.
does anybody have any workshop requests?

it is certainly a handy list. but i think it is a bit overused. perhaps if a new improved list came up once a day rather than every time somone posted it might be better, and make more sese to thse of us who don't peruse everything line by line...;)
90min classes or 1 hour classes?

the point of the list is that the last list is the most up todate list, meaning that rather than someone have to back through the thread and look for teh amount of people and who have said they would like to go
they can update the list and it be ready to go
i do see your point
maybe you are right, few people thought now should be addingtheir names to the list, bar the housing situation......
i think maybe 1 hr classes meaning we should be able to get more classes into teh time
will there be a published list of classes closer to the time,
will there be a links workshop?

Im with mo-seph make classes 90mins. It usually takes an hour for my body to get up to speed so I 'll only just be getting things by the last 1/2 hour.
Meg how did you manage to make 6staffs. I couldnt even lift 1staff and by the way what are staff head protectors?? Do they protect the head of the staff or your head from the staff?
