I don't mind, but only if its short, cos i lyk bouncign, not walking , o and like charli B said, water nearby is really important! (+ maybe free food as well  )

[Dark Knight]

I've got a camel drink backpack .... never used it always know there was a shop near by 

[Mini Ellis]

yeah drinks and that could be an issue but it is worth investing in a drunk pack now going to e-mail the woman back about the points which have been raised.

Hi all i have had another e-mail so pleaswe let me know what siz t-shirt you want and any other questions, and i dunno if we want to be in two groups and swap half way if needed ??

Mini Ellis -

Hi Hannah and friends,

glad to hear from you!

yes, there will be water for you all, there will be a steward to pass it up.

The parade will start at the front of the Wolsey Theatre, then walk to the town hall. There will be a stop of 5 minutes on the Cornhill, then walking to the end of Tavern Street. A second group will walk from outside the co-op in Carr Street and join the first group in Northgate Street. We will all walk up Northgate Street, cross St Margarets Plain and enter the park by the Soane Street gates.

We will start at 1.30pm from the Wolsey and estimate we will arrive at the carnival site at the top end of the park at 2.15pm.

So, you can join the parade at the Wolsey, at the Town Hall, or at the Co-op.

I have carnival t-shirts if you would like. They are white with a funky drumming horse with flares playing a drum. You can colour in/decorate these!

If you're interested let me know what sizes etc. Also if you have family or friends supporting you they can have t-shirts too.

Also this Saturday we have a day of free carnival arts at the St Nicholas Centre. I have attached the advert.

Please send a short bit about your group so I can put it on our website!

regards

Blue

This is the lastest e-mail i have received

Hi hannah,
thanks for all of that!
have t-shirts and will post to you guys tomorrow. Please decorate as you want!
There is a small change with the parade- the borough council want to make a bigger event outside the town hall on the cornhill for the raising of the Olympic Flag. This will involve the Mayor and Olypians etc at 2.30pm
This will mean a change in time for us setting off from the Wolsey Theatre.
I am meeting with the borough tomorrow, so will be clearer about the times then.
regards
Blue

i wil send out an e-mail to everyone i have on the list so far about where to meet etc

Thanks i will update you with meeting times and we dont have to do the whole parade so if anyone has a good idea of ipswich and wants to point out a good place to stop at then we can go to the park and wait for everyone to arrive for circus stuff.

If you cannot come please let me know - also if you wanna bring extra bockers your welcome =]

Thanks,
