I haven't been to this for a few years either. I remember the lovely warm vibe, and that delicious bonfire. I considered going this year but remembered, I have two parties to go to that night already. Hmmm maybe I could go to Northey Street early. I'm sure they'll light the fire pretty early, then I can just take that warmth with me!

OK so this is me *bumping* an old thread rather than make a new one * pats self on head and hopes peopledon;t get all mixed up about the dates*
This is 2007 OK and the Northey St City Farm Winter Solstice party is on Sat 23rd June.
I am looking for 2-4 spinners to help with the ritual lighting of the bonfire and have a bit of a play.
Lots of people who would usually be involved are out of town doofing/camping that weekend so I would really appreciate some new faces stepping up!
Doesn't need fabulous skills.. most of it is more ceremonial than performance style. We have long torches and assorted nice things to play with as well as anything you bring.
PM me or leave a note here...
Cheers!
