----------- 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

Ahhhh.. Euan was there?
I was unbeknownst to this fact.
I knew that Euan was Spacemonkee though and forgot to mention redface

I have zee cash for last weeks meeting. Will bring it along next week with the set of poi that were handed in too.

My reason for not beign there yesterday: I was too close too home to mission it back across London to get to Liverpool street, only then to travel all the way home again.

There'll sort of be one on the 29th

We'll be in The Poet - the pub just around the corner from the market, since there's going to be something taking up all the space in the market itself.
Just like Hexagonic said up there /|\ tongue

But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

Hello there everybody

I only found out there was a meet in spitalfields on friday, and was planning to head along this tuesday, but since there is something going on in the market i will have to wait.

Is there going to be one next week?

Hope to see you soon

Ok, on the 29th (tomorrow), we're going to be in the pub that's on the western end of Folgate Street (which is in the centre of this map.
Don't let it put you off coming, there's space out the back of the pub for spinning.

On the 6th, we're back in the market, unless we hear anything different from Ewan.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
