Looks good, think I will venture that way
With the ever so Tessalicious, Tessalicious in da House. Thats where I'll be.
Thanks mikey .
This is the first event of its kind for us/me so I'm a little nervous - so it would be really nice to see a few familiar faces in the crowd. Places are limited though, so if you want to come along, I suggest you call up and reserve your ticket. I look forward to nabbing a few of you for some dances too .
Don't think I have anything else in my diary, so may well give it a go.
So Witty, looks like I may have to "Bloch" the date on my calendar and go and sort out which shoes to take with me, depending on whether they "pump" up the music.

I'm hoping to come up from Brighton with a couple of belles

Im so sorry, but i will be working on that day , but i will be thinking about you, and i wish you every success, and dont be nervous, you will do an amazing jobOriginally Posted by Tessalicious
don't finish work till 3 pm so its an ever so sad no for Mrs Par and I
hope you all have a great day.
Good Luck Tesss and EsG
Luckily, or unluckily, depending on which way you look at it, I am working all week so no Sunday or Monday T-dances.
However I will be thinking about you so hope it all goes really well - sounds like you've got some good dancers making quite a journey. So lots of luck Tessa and ESG.

Wow what an afternoon.
The music was fantastic, lots of lovely dances although I do feel completely wiped out now
Great venue, shame about the floor
Nice to catch up with people
Anything going on this weekend?
It was indeed a really fab afternoon!!
The music was both up beat and downbeat enough, enough dancers of all standards to keep each other satified (is that the appropriate level of diplomacy???), the cakes (whilst not of Sparkles-home-made standard) were yummy, the bar was open, the atmosphere was friendly and fun...
Witty was obviously in pain at times (naughty girl !), but we all have to do what we all have to do to keep ourselves sane and happy... Glad to see you got home safely...
Very glad I went, and I am sure most others feel the same...
Foxy
Great afternoon - well worth the long journey (thanks for driving Dangerous Curves )
As Foxy said, good mixture of dancers and great music....
Only downside, is that because Tesslish was playing such great music we stayed till near 6pm and therefore I got back too late to go to Woking ... but hey I had a good afternoon (thank you Spicey for THREE wonderful dances ) - nice to see David James too - thank you too for a fab dance and Clive Long and Alec too ... so as you can see I had my dancing fix

Well done to ESG and Tessa and Annette.
I loved the layout, style and "vibe" of the venue - shame it isn't a tad bigger. It'll be great for a private party ... :thinks:
Lovely to get in the groove. Tessalicious, TopBird, MissyD, Witty, Taz, Foxy all sublime. Dizzy, 3 hours body roll practice please.I don't normally do the lovey, lovey bit by on the forum but top spot must go to Minnie M. She can do more with a simple step, pointed foot and shrug of a shoulder than many can achieve in a whole dance. Tempts me to defect into the whole Swing dance world.

Oh sorry Minnie I didn't realise you hadn't met or I would have introduced you. You were watching me and Mikeyr dance on the platform partway through the afternoon he is the one with muscles and a vestOriginally Posted by Minnie M

Big thanks to everyone for the dances a special to Spice and easy, Mikeyr, WongD, DJ, The Long One, R-K, Minnie M, Witty (hillarious dance we had), Top Bird, Dangerous Curves and Dizzy
The venue was really nice and although it got a little packed out we still managed to find a comfortable spot to dance in.

I'm glad everyone seemed to have a good time - and thanks for the kind comments. (Send me the complaints by PM, eh? No need to broadcast them to the masses.) And I'll get working on the next one asap.
