Rep Power: 6 Rep.: 1723   | 10th Anniversary Dances Hiya all.... So then. Opportunity to talk about all the people you danced with! So, here goes for me. Thank you to the following people for stopping me sitting alone in my usual corner all night. Apologies in advance to the people I miss. I met lots of people for the first time last night, and I didn't really manage to keep up with all the names. I'll work on it for next time. If you'll have me back again!! Heather (I have to say her first (a) Cos, like the rest of you, I'm scared of her, and (b) Cos she's one of the only other two people currently online, watching me!!) Denise, who I hope wasn't shaking too much Filthycute (Damn, meant to ask if that comes from the song lyric, 'You're filthycute and baby you you know it'. Laura. Nice bluesy dance. Just booked my ticket for the 6th. See you there! Fran. Lovely as always. Gorgeous too. What else can I say? Sheena, Janet, Wendy, Lorna. Lovely dances ladies. I promise to be better by the next time I see you all. DavidB, DreadfuoScathe and Ceroc Jock. Ummmm. I'm not saying anything here!! And of course, Lisa. Who I'd travel 410.8 miles (657.3 kilometres) to dance with anytime I possibly could. And probably many more too. Wonder how far it is to Aberdeen.... Steve |

Rep Power: 4 Rep.: 276 | Great dances -difficult circumstances!!!!!  Thanks to everyone I had the pleasure of dancing with at the 10th Anniversary dance last night!!The Tramp - I'll mention you first, as you mentioned me!!!Nice to meet you and the next time we dance I hope we have more room. ( And I don't believe for one minute you were scared of me - I have noted that you can actually spell quite well, so you don't have much to worry about!!) 'The Lovely Bill'- As always, a wonderful bluesy dance, giving me a chance to try out the 'up close and personal ' moves from the Gorgeous Gus workshop. Well actually, we didn't have any option but to get close, did we???? LOL 'The Lovely Roy' - WELL, what can I say!!! Lovely in all respects and looking Soooooo handsome in his kilt!!   Robert, AKA Ceroc Jock - First time I've danced with you, but definitely another next time the MAd crew are in Glasgow!!! Franck - The Birthday Boy!!! Great dance as ever Franck, just love dancing with you!! Craig - AKA Gorgeous Gus to Forum members, tried to get near you all night, and finally managed as Ceroc Jock played his last record. Looking forward to the next time. (Dundee Christmas Party 6th December ????) Last but definitely NOT least , 'The Lovely Brady' - my first choice for a dance any night!!! Any one else I danced with and didn't mention, thanks to you all. Sadly I didn't get a lot of dancing done - always seemed to be off somewhere or other, changing my outfit!!!!!!!  Heather  |

Rep Power: 4 Rep.: 843 | Just relaying a message from Jayne - she ainÕt been too well recently, and is currently away being pampered by her parents down south. However, the lack of an internet connection may hamper her recovery somewhat... Anyway, the message is a big THANK YOU to all the guys she had great dances with on Saturday!  Likewise, thanks from me to the ladies - I must have enjoyed myself somehow, I was totally knackered by half past one...

Rep Power: 6 Rep.: 1527 | I would like to thank everyone I did manage to dance with, and apologise to them for a slightly{?} more constrained dance than I would normally. (Especially the young lady that I ended up very close 'blues-ing' with and we still managed to get jostled - I couldn't have made us any smaller on the dance floor!} I would also like to apologise to anyone that was looking to dance with me, but didn't: I only missed one song {with the exclusion of a couple of the ceilidh dances} and never danced with the same person twice. Thank you, one and all for making what could have been a disastrous night into an enjoyable experience.

Blog Entries: 4 Rep Power: 8 Rep.: 2567 | Had great dances with Laura, Elsie, Jayne, Susan and quite a few with people I don't know the names of. I think I was intimidated by LilyB - sorry about that Im normally better honest  . Missed dances with Lisa, FilthyCute, Fran and sorry Sheena for suggesting you snubbed me, you looked mortified - bad choice of words I just meant I hadnt seen you all night to ask. sorry!oh i also wanted to dance and did dance with more people who ive not mentioned - sorry for my bad memory! Thanks to theTramp, we had a lot of room (strange how people get out of the way sometimes) but i still didnt try a seducer..... Oh and no thanks to the rude guy who reacted to his lack of space by pushing my partner firmly in the back till she got out of his way - yeah we're all short of space pal!

Rep Power: 6 Rep.: 1527 | While I was dishing out thanks for some great dances, I forgot to compliment the ladies on their attire; some stunning dresses and some stunning body's filling them  Pity the dance floor was too crowded to fully appreciate them

 Or was that because of the killer looks I was giving quite a few people around us during our dance? I'm afraid I was a mite upset at so many men behaving in such ungentlemanly fashion. I am only small (5'2") - surely it is a rule of civilised society that gentlemen do not hit those smaller than themselves? Alas, that seems not to be the case on Saturday...........I really must apologise, DS - grovel, grovel - I do not like giving my partners the impression that I was not enjoying dancing with them.:sorry  I was very pleased to have had the chance to dance with you. We definitely must do it again, so get yourself down to London, my good man!I missed out on dancing with Gadget, but he certainly didn't miss out on anything - such is the demand for that man's services! Same goes for Gus, but he knows I'll nail him one day - I know where he goes dancing! Acknowledgement also due to the superlative Keith of C2D - I could have danced all night, as the song goes, but we did get in the last two dances of the evening, so I'll have to be content with that!

Rep Power: 10 Rep.: 1633 | Wasn't it fab? This will be a short list as unfortunately I didn't seem to get much dancing done until about 12.30am. However the dances I had then more than made up for it Mike from Newcastle - first dance of the night and a superb "Ice Man" demo - (you know what I mean Gus? )A fab ceilidh dance with Keith from C2D even if he did take a little bit of persuading An absolutely brilliant dance with Brady - using a lot of the moves we learned in Gus and Helen's workshops - it was a blast! Alex - "All that Jazz" - wow! Steven from Dundee (not the dancing penguin - the other one!) who loves doing drops usually but was very restrained and didn't do any - well done - we had a great time. Rob - smooth as ever! A WCS dance with David B - it was fantastic - I spent quite a while just watching you and Lily dance, I've got a long, long, long way to go but I really enjoyed myself, you're a brilliant lead and very stylish. Niall - what can I say? Nearly fainted when he suggested "The Chair" - and then realised he was only joking - what a smile! Another great dance - from Stuart M - the first of many I hope. The Tramp - we managed to get a spot at the edge of the floor and seemed to have a whole lot of space just for us - some great moves that I've never seen before - it was a lot of fun The last dance from BTC - the lovely Roy - wow!wow!wow! Sooo many people I didn't get the chance to dance with including lots of people through from Dundee and Aberdeen - no Bill, no Gadget:sorry no Steven, John S or Colin:sorry no Graham, James, Gus, Keith's friend with the fab trousers( name of supplier please!) No DS - I would never snub anyone intentionally but especially not you 3 second dance with Franck and there were so many other people whom I would have loved to dance with but just ran out of time.Special mention to Janey's fabulous furry bra-top - think Niall lost the plot when he noticed that (6 yoyo's in a row! ). Gus you looked great in your kilt and Helen looked soo elegant. Dennis from Aberdeen too - thought your troos were brill!Better stop or Val will give me a row again for being gushy:reallymad But have to mention Sandy's new top - all those red fringes - fantastic - "Planet" here I come! |
