The one o'clock gun

It's a bizarre thing, but whilst it is technically a canon, it is referred to by locals as "The One O'clock Gun."


As to wether our poster is a canon or a gun.....

... depends on how big his crush on chickie is!!

Hi Julie and welcome to the Forum. If you're a friend of Dangerous Curves, then you must be okay, cos she is such a lovely person. Look forward to meeting you in person sometime.

Re: By way of introduction...

Good morning folks,
I'm Baldrick and yes I answer to that name full time. You can try calling me Dave, but I sometimes forget thats me. A recent convert to Ceroc, after a kayaking buddy muttered about this great dance scene he'd got into. So I jumped in at Jumpin Jaks a couple of months ago, and now think I might need to do Wednesdays as well, just for the extra practice. Seems I'm hooked.

And a quick thanks to the nice ladies who have been putting up with me as I learn, Ta.

Talking Re: By way of introduction...

Hi
I'm Diana, sort of obvious eh, and I joined a dance class after a Spice holiday where I danced for a weekend a load of styles and some girls told me about ceroc that it was male-led and easy-peasy, and so I found a class when I got home.

It was easy peasy and really good fun, and so its taken over from Spice and I haven't been spicing for AGES

I now have two pairs of dance shoes and a permanently packed suitcase and friends from all over the country!
