Yeah, that got me too - basically, don't believe the times in the calendar. I think they could be getting messed up with the change in the clocks... Dunno. Anyways, they always seem to be wrong.

It's 7.30.

Hope you both have fun!

Cool. Make sure that you come say hello (I'm the bald DJ). That applies to you too Ducasi!

You probably want to get there a little before 7:30. Just so that you can get the membership form filled out and be ready on time for the class. Though, I don't suppose it'll start bang on time

Looking forward to my trip down to Glasgow again

Thumbs up Re: Well I guess I joined then.

Hi!
So as many will know I did make it last night and had a great time.
Just wanted to say that you are all fabulous dancers I was soo impressed.
Although Steve could probably do with some practice-you know being a beginner and all lol
Ducasi-I was quite impressed-you are a good dancer although you only been goin 8 weeks btw i'll be wantin another dance nxt wk.
Also-Daniella,you're an amazing dancer, you and Steve dance well together .
Ok I am finished with the praise now,lol.

Found the class ok-a little hard , so much to take in-all that turning. I think I did ok though, what did you guys think?

Bye for now

Ashx

Yeah, you're right about Steve – I saw him make so many beginner errors when he was dancing with those two girls at the same time.

I don't think I'm doing too bad, all things considered... but when you look at Steve or Danielle, you have to wonder how you could ever get near to their level.

But then, as everyone told me, and so I'm now telling you... They were once beginners just like you. And you've got an advantage on most of the rest of us - you're much younger than us!

You did really well I thought. I was able to lead some simple moves you didn't know and you got through them. You didn't try to lead me, you didn't cause any major injuries, and you enjoyed yourself. And what more could any dance partner want for their follower?

Hope to see you both back next week – I'll make sure to keep a dance for you.

Glad that you had a good time.

If you've never done any partner dancing before, then it's bound to be a little hard/strange. Don't worry, you'll soon pick it up I'm sure. You did fine when we had a dance.

Hope you keep at it. I'll look forward to seeing how much you (and your friend) have progressed next time I'm through in Glasgow. Got any more work for me down there Franck??

Don't worry about it - a perfect understanding of CJ would mean you were at least one of:
  • A world-class clinical psychologist with excellent general knowledge
  • Unbelievably debauched
  • Insane
