Pauric, promise us you won&#39;t have a heart attack this year with all of these things that you&#39;re taking on!<br><br>It&#39;s a pity about the backdrop, but I suppose there&#39;s nothing that we can do about it, unless we wanted to order a ready-made one, that probably wouldn&#39;t take so long to deliver, I guess.
<br><br>But if we have enough boards to make a set for the panto, that&#39;s good too. Marian needs to get a clear idea of what she wants as soon as possible though, so that someone can design the set for the stage, and we need to get cracking on building and painting early enough so that it&#39;s not a stay-up-until-four-in-the-morning-the-night-before-the-show-opens job, as it has been in years past.
<br><br>If we can get the numbers to pitch in and help make and paint the set, then that&#39;s great, job should be sorted without too much pain. I&#39;m just going to re-iterate: let&#39;s not leave it to the last minute!

<div><br clear="all">Hey Guys,</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>I have some good news and i have some bad news......i will start with the latter.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>I went to order the panto backdrop today using my mothers credit card,before i did so i rang them;&nbsp;I asked them what was the delivery time and to my astonishment she said in order for it to be made,as we had to get specfic dimensions for the backdrop,and to delivery it to us it would take 14 working days!!!Competely different to the 2-4 day delivery time on the website
</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>This means that it wouldnt be ready for the panto..................</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>However i do have some good news;the boards from last years panto are still about,there are&nbsp;10-12 of them in total...enough for us to make a pretty kickarse set.We can advertise this as a week long set workshop and i know for a fact alot of people are interested in set building,i will also include this in our 
announce.I was on to&nbsp;Marian and she has definite set idea&#39;s in mind anyway.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>I know its slightly disappointing,and perhaps i should have got on top of this early,but on the other hand this is what panto is all about,rolling with the punchs and doing a great job,the cast is extremely enthusiatic and i know they will garner great fun from making the set 
themselve.Also it giives more people a chance to get involved in Drama.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>I feel we have strenght in numbers within our membership to pull this off and i would like to put myself forward in leading this week long workshop.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Cheers</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Pauric </div>
