Re: [lace] FYI: So. CAL Bobbin lace class

Round here (south London) it's about how much the venue costs to hire more
than the teaching.  You can easily pay £70 plus for one term.

One of my local lace groups is about £50 a year for one meeting a month
simply due to the cost of the venue.

Whenever I teach privately I always say that I'll do it for the cost of the
petrol, a peppermint tea and good company - so if you can get a few of you to
learn then it brings the cost down.  This means that if you want to have only
a
lesson a month then it costs less - the more lessons a month - say weekly or
fortnightly then you pay to get me there.

Mind you - I've always ended up dropping a couple of my students off on the
way home too so I'm probably a good buy as a teacher grin

 the
 adult education department?

 Through adult education, I've got a choice of a 2 hour x 24 week class in
 Poole for 120 pounds (190 dollars), but 84 pounds (132 dollars) for women
 over 60 (men over 65), or 24 weeks in Bournemouth split into 2 lots of 12
 for payment, total for 24 weeks 110 pounds (173 dollars) or 55 pounds (86
 dollars)for seniors. I've been going to the Bournemouth class for a couple
 of years, but won't be going this session till after Christmas as I'm due
to
 have a knee replacement at the beginning of October.

 There are a couple of private classes running for less.

Hi Jean and Ysandra,
You people are definitely living in the wrong part of the world. I have 
a choice of 6 lace classes within 10 - 15 miles of where I live, a 
couple much closer than that. we will pay £28-50 ( about $35?) for a 10 
week term this year, pensioners over 60 and other concessioners half 
price. Come north friends :)
