Summer dates

I'll send this out to the mailing list, too, but will keep this post updated if there are any changes in the future (the post will be linked to from the When & Where page).

So in short, I can only commit to coming down to Northampton every fortnight, so after chatting with the group on Monday night, it's decided that there will def be zazen on every 2nd and 4th Monday of the summer - June, July, August & September. Exact dates are listed below - and note that there will be zazen on both of the remaining Mondays in May.

In addition, we will try to make arrangements for other people to organise sittings on at least some of the alternate weeks, and if for any reason I'm in N'hants on one of these weeks, I'll open up as usual. Those dates, though, aren't currently confirmed, and I'll post to this site as & when they are.

So, the specific dates are:
  • May 21, 28
  • June 11, 25
  • July 9, 23
  • August 13, 27
  • September 10, 24  Edit: 17/9 now also!
I know this is not ideal - I've always said that I want to have a sitting every week so as to avoid confusion and to gain momentum; running this fortnightly will demand a bit more from all of us in terms of intention to keep things going. So apologies for that, but I hope we can make plans to 'fill in the gaps'.

In the meantime, though - hope everyone has a fantastic summer!
