Dear Pipers
I called in at the Manor today and discovered we have over 30 pipers booked. I think there are still a couple of rooms left for those last minute bookers who still wish to come and join us all on the 5-8th March 2010, at our annual Northumbrian residential weekend Piping course with top quality tuition, good food, the amazing ambiance of Halsway and, of course, the company of all your friends from the piping fraternity. But if you are new I can tell this is the best event for beginners to make a start with Northumbrian pipes! Just to remind you - this year we have on staff - ANDY MAY, CHRIS ORMSTON, CHRIS EVANS and FRANCIS WOOD. Alan & Christine will be your hosts, helping to sort out all those little problems and encouraging you to spend those last few coppers in the Halsway Shop. There will be a raffle on Saturday Night for which notated prizes will be most acceptable. In the evening on Saturday we have a public concert for which tickets are being sold at -L-5 each. Tickets limited! First come, first served! Whilst I realise some need to get away promptly after the Sunday afternoon cream tea, please remember too that you can stay over till Monday morning and drive home in the daylight. There is a playaround on Sunday evening where some locals will join us in the music activities. There will be a light supper and B/B. We also have some non residents attending as there will be guests staying at the local B/Bs as well as those camping nearby. Check on [1]www.halswaymanor.org.uk or ring Viv on 01984 618274. Halsway Manor, Crowcombe Somerset TA4 4BD. For help and advice - ring Alan on 01278 732202, but remember he cannot take bookings. Looking forward to seeing you all again! Best wishes Alan & Christine Corkett -- References 1. http://www.halswaymanor.org.uk/ To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
