Jean dropped in yesterday to discuss the new Chivalrous Sword Handling courses at Algonquin for the fall. He does not want to hang about until ten o'clock...who can blame him! He has to get up early to do his day jobs. On Wednesdays, we cannot start until 8 o'clock,and I refuse to go all the way into Ottawa for a one hour class. (I mean, you figure last spring with 60 cent a liter gas, it was costing me ten bucks to go from Metcalfe to west end Ottawa and back, and this fall, with gas at 95 cents, that would be 12 to 15 bucks in fuel alone to teach a one hour class. Not to mention a half hour on winter roads each way. it is just not worth the trouble to do a one hour class! So, we have decided pretty much to drop Wednesday evenings for the fall, and do the classes on Friday. One small glitch though....how do we teach two 8 week classes back to back starting 16 September? I'll see if anybody wants to start it a week early, then we will be able to end them 23 December.
(And here I was hoping to do it all Wednesday,and get my Fridays off....for a change)
So, drop Wednesdays like, totally, and two back to back courses on Friday.
The winter and spring months, no problems. Our Fridays will be clear, and we will be teaching Mondays and Wednesdays.
Really looking forward to it.
Bill
