Funny what makes people's "not to miss" lists, none of those would feature on mine, but there are plenty of others that would!

[Beowulf]

where's the option for "less than 3"?

I might possibly attend Ayr in May but that's about it.

So far, we're on for 2x Rock Bottoms, a salsa weekender, and (of course) Herrang. The Spring Swing Fling will almost certainly find its way into the mix, as will Sultans of Swing. Others... well - there'll likely be others, but they won't be from that list...

The list seems to be the 'big' (500+) MJ weekenders and competitions. If you start including smaller weekend MJ events and 'big' freestyles things get busier and if you include non MJ events like salsa, swing and tango (to name a few) and start including events outside the UK (as you have done) then where do you stop?

[Dynamo]

The list .... do you stop?

May I paraphrase you Lynn

and the answer for me is Dynamo, so guess I will never stop

seriously, they have finally beaten me, will only do probablly 8 and counting.

I think the smaller, more regional events (albeit with visitors coming from further afield) shouldn't be on the list. And we definitely shouldn't list anything that happens in London!

Well, these are the ones I know I'll be going to so far..... Although not all that enthusiastic about the Camber one, so might ditch that one.... Not sure.

And of course there's the BFG, the Scottish Ceroc Champs, the Beach Ballroom weekends plus other more local events (like Kirrimuir).......

Ah, all this dancing, not enough time....

I'm not suggesting any of these events should be on the list (even Herrang, which dwarfs anything on the list is non-UK and non-MJ ). I'm just saying what we're doing, because it seemed relevant in the context of the thread, and because we're not doing anything on the list.

[Mostlysane]

Just as an aside. Does anyone know when the Scottish champs are scheduled for next year? Just so i can put them in my diary.

[David Bailey]

Boy, we so need a central "What's on" listing...

[Lynn]

Snap, me too!

I enjoyed it last year, so looking forward to (plus got a cheap ticket).

Even all those might stretch my limit for next year. (I was able to do extra this year thanks to getting budget tickets to a couple of Ceroc events.)

Thanks mate. Done.

Isn't that Lynda's List or the UK-Jive website. Or are you thinking of something that goes a bit further ahead?

www.lyndaslist.com ( ) is probably the best Southern resource, but it doesn't cover weekenders (or normal classes for that matter), and doesn't have maps / links etc. So it's great if you know what you're doing, but not so good for beginners.

www.salsajive.co.uk is a Big List, with maps and links, but I'm not sure how up-to-date it is, and it takes a long time to find out "what's on now".

www.ceroc.com only covers ceroc events of course, plus naff navigation again.

So at the moment, I use a combination of all of the above - plus, OK, I admit I read the "Who's going where" threads to at least find out what's on.

if only I had more time - that is what I would really like to do

However, I do have a link to classes and a couple of links to other sites who do cover other areas

I also have built up a list of all weekenders (most are mentioned above) just in case anyone emails me to ask

(thanks for the kind words DJ )

[David Bailey]

Yours is far and away the easiest to use - 1 click and you see what's on. (4 clicks for ceroc.com, 3 clicks and lots of scrolling for salsajive.co.uk)

Ever thought about reciprocal-links / sponsorship?
