Just to let everyone know, the Leeds women's event is going ahead. There is
space for 6 teams.
So far I have entered BAF, Bliss, Mavis and Disco Inferno, so there are two
places left.
If you are interested in entering or picking up with another team please let
me know. I am contactable on this e-mail address till 4pm this evening after
that I am away till Wed. the 18th of July. If you have any queries please
contact Emma Buttle. She has been cc'ed above.
Cheers,
M
