Just because there is enough room to dance - it doesn't mean there is enough room to do drops.

I was dancing at the weekend in London, and had an interesting experience. The floor was fairly busy, but there was still plenty of room to dance. I was doing a fairly simple move (something a change of place) when I felt a strong push in the back. It was not a bump - it was a definite push. I looked round and there was a guy doing a drop right behind me. He had just pushed me out of the way so he could do the drop!

I saw the guy throughout the night. He seemed a fairly experienced dancer, but obviously saw nothing wrong with clearing his own space to dance.

Perhaps someone should tell him to go to Hammersmith...
