I am SURE (IMO) that there are a lot of dancers in the Advance that really should be in the Intermediate, because of an inflated opinion of themselves.

AND there are a few past winners. who now feel they are above dancing with the likes of the average dancer now ! (unless they are slim and lovely of course)

(I have my own problems as time is getting nearer, I am feeling very nervous as I have seen some really great 'older' dancers, so I am training my mind to think of it as a bit of competitive fun).
