Hopefully this year I'll have a costume that's slightly easier to dance in....


Any thoughts on what the fancy dress theme should be (assuming it hasn't yet been decided?)

I think that it should be a generic fancy dress or perhaps an open theme
like "movies". Awards should go for best general costume and a separate
award for best avatar based costume (your own avatar or someone else's).

The last couple have had some costumes, but I would like to see
more people taking part, and having such a narrow base of avatars to draw on
makes it a lot harder... especially since you can only change yours once you
become a member.

i think a theme might be better if it wasnt fancy dress, ie a sparkles and glitter, or a specific colour, like a black and white ball type thing etc!

Re: Bfg 2006

How about Forum Names as opposed to Avatars??

Or will we just call it the BG?

Re: Bfg 2006

Can't we just dress up as whatever we want? That way we can just give awards based on originality. I just wanna dress up as something cool, without having to stick to too narrow a selection.

Doh Icey!

Night Owl was at the workshop in Stirling last night - and shame on you if you didn't dance with him! He was the one who received a round of applause when he walked in the door (complete with beard) for having driven down from Inverness for the class after driving back from the Glasgow party on the Sat night! ( Respect Night Owl! Or should that be commiseration and sympathy for the level of addiction already attained?!)

And thanks to you Icey for my dances this weekend - they were fab (well, for me at least!). It's always nice to wlecome visitors from foreign parts and hopefully you'll pencil in a slot for me on your dancecard when you're back up for the BFG? Please?

In the meantime, keep counting those beans....

Yeah. You couldn't go for the red. It'd clash horribly with your hair!! Good choice!

Re: Bfg 2006

Why is it that when it's possible to click on more than one option on a poll DS feels compelled to click on everything?!

Re: Bfg 2006

That reminds me . . . . I've booked a double there for Fri/Sat/Sun

but we can't make it anymore

I can cancel as long as I give at least 24 hours notice but if anyone wants it I'm sure they can just change the names etc (havn't paid anything at all yet)




Just realized - our room only cost £50 per night . . . . don't all PM me at once!

Re: Bfg 2006

Prices charged are the prices quoted by the hotel, nothing has been added.

So far I've had bookings for one twin and one double room, so it's definitely THE place to be
