----------- Spinning@... Update -----------

Dear all



we have moved to a new location.... se here for the new treead

[Old link]





see you at the rag factory..





this is why we have moved...





We had discussions in the pub on Tuesday regarding the use of the market for spinning@spitz and thanks to friends we have a much clearer idea of what’s going on:



Unfortunately we are not allowed back into the market for our workshops. It seems that while we have been out the market for the work, there has been a change of management. The new management appears to want to “increase the value” of the market area (gentrification is the term being used). This has led to many of the existing tenants not being invited to re enter the market, our selves included.



The st’georges residents association would have had no idea we would not be allowed back in, so although annoying its not their fault. We still have contacts in the market and we don’t want to cut out any future possibility of re-entering the market at a later date by kicking up a fuss, especially when there is no chance at all of us using the space in the current climate.



We need to do 2 things… 1. Find a temporary place to play ASAP… (see top) and 2. Find a permanent new home… to help us move forward we need your help. Please think of the people around you, be it your parents, friends, colleagues etc and see if there is anyone who may be able to finds us a new home… put the feelers out there.



If you find somewhere that fits our criteria (see below) then please get a contact name, a number or email and if appropriate, have a brief chat with them as a recommendation or personal contact makes a huge difference. If they are interested, forward their details to me and I will then chase it up.



We require an indoor or covered outdoor area with adequate lighting able to house up to 100 people on a Tuesday evening within 10mins from a tube and centrally located. We also require power to run a portable stereo.



On another note we have decided to have a Xmas party to raise some funds to help us secure a new spinning@..... ‘s venue. The confirmed date is Thursday 20th December in a Brixton from about 7.30 pm to 1 am. More details to follow.



Hopefully we will get sorted very soon and in the meantime we will meet at the poet next week and maybe look at ice skating, bowling or something else there after.



Huge hugs



Kev and the guys at spinning@.... ‘s

Fine... somebody tell her. But it's not my fault if she actually shows up.

If only it was written in the first post of this thread or something... wink

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.

Hee hee... hey, you know I've only said good stuff behind Ms. Meg's back. hug But can you imagine the horror if superstar MCP actually got an ego? It would be of apocalyptic proportions.

See you at EJC Meg. And if you're good you can even catch a kip on the green rug. [oh you'll see] eek

Well, shall we go?

A kiss blown is a kiss wasted, the only kind of kiss is a kiss tasted.

I'm a woman. We don't say what we want, but we reserve the right to be pissed off if we don't get it. That's what makes us so fascinating and not just a LITTLE bit scary.

Attention all Londoners!!!

This TUESDAY should be a very special Spitz since there will be quite a few post-EJC travelers hitting up Spitz on the way out of France. Rumors of Mop Headed Scotish Staffers and even New York Yankees appearing. And something about Red Headed Brits with Flaming Blue Beverages interested in Experimental Sexual Position Workshops.

So if you're undecided about going... get your butt to Spits THIS TUESDAY!!!

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.
