    Weston Super Mare

    Who's going and who's doing what?

    Also if anyone needs accommodation there are still rooms available at the Premier Travel Inn. We stayed there last year and it's a very short drive to the Winter Gardens. The weekend rate is £49.95 per room per night, and you can cancel right up to the day of arrival with no charge.

    Dammit Mary! You beat me to my traditional annual thread!

    Am definitely going to watch. I still haven't decided whether to enter DWAS yet.

    It'd be fantastic (as ever) to see forumites come down to visit us...

    Ooops. Sorry. Perhaps you could ask a moderator to delete the thread and make way for the traditional one.

    Ditto! It's be great to see you (and the lovely TWK, too, of course)....

    I'm hesitant to put a link on because, of course, I do maintain Sherif's website - although (I hasten to add), I'm not really affiliated to LeRoc2000 (except that I dance there, and act as substitute teacher every now and again, and they're all very good mates....), and I don't want to bring down the wrath of the moderators (particularly following Adam's example.... )!

    W-S-M. It's what used to be called the Bristol competition. It's happening on 23rd July (pre-comp dance on Friday 22nd). Usual categories. All at the lovely Winter Gardens in Weston.

    Was looking for the link that Lou didn't post and found this one:
    http://leroc.net/leroc2000/Championship/index.htm

    However the "Packages" link talks about a weekend in 2004 - is this the right site?
    Love dance, will travel

    Re: Weston Super Mare

    I've just sent off for my tickets.

    I love this venue - very beautiful and a great floor.

    I just hope I get a chance to practice with dale, he is so busy studying I've only danced with him once since the champs. Though maybe my car breaking down had more to do with it Exams are next week - good luck dale.

    Anyone doing the Salsa? I'm thinking about it.

    And at last, a chance to give you back your medical supplies you lent me at the champs!

    I won't be staying for the weekend though, as when the dancing finishes, I'll be heading straight for the Isle of Wight for Beach Boogie. As long as I'm there by 5a.m., there should be the chance for a few more dances before bed. Anybody else mad enough for that?

    Re: Weston Super Mare

    Sounds tempting. Can i get a bit more info on the weekend please ?

    Is the Friday night in the same venue as the comps on the Sat?
    Whats the start/finish times on the Friday?
    Is it just the one room or more for the different styles?


    The Saturday plan says "competition + freestyle". How much freestyle is timetabled in and is there much chance of achieving it?
    Is the glitter ball more than one room?

    Can you take drinks into the venue?

    Lastly, is there anything happening in the surrounding area (well anywhere between WSM and Manchester ). Would love to make it a HUGE weekend.

    Hope someone can help.
