Jamie and the Tramp.

I have a special little mascot for a wonderfull Scotish couple, his pants purrrrrrr!

TheTramp · 3rd-May-2008, 06:59 AM

ACK!

I don't know if I'm going to make it.

Taxi turned up late for the bus I was supposed to be on (06:05). Got there about 2 mins after the bus had left

Now, megabus.com is down, and their phonelines don't open until 8am - and if I remember correctly, that's about when the next bus leaves.

Robin · 5th-May-2008, 02:44 AM

Odd ... is it me or has nobody posted about the Champs today ? as in the results ?

I would do it but I'm not very good on names

**Filthy Monkey** · 5th-May-2008, 02:46 AM

Okay, I'll start -

Bond Nights won the Team Cabaret!!!

Thanks, everyone, for all your support. The noise from the crowd really made a difference to the amount of energy we were able to put into the performance. We couldn't have done it without you!

**Tiggerbabe** · 5th-May-2008, 02:48 AM

Congratulations

Top result! You guys were superb at Blackpool and I thought you were unlucky not to get through to the final. Glad you both got the recognition you deserve!

A very explosive performance

Nice to see Mr & Mrs Fitz Won a trophy (and did they not come second in another??

Sorry at this point I was upstairs so didn't really see the award ceremony)

But as always the standard was superb. Congrats to Caz for getting through so far.

Was nice to catch up with some friends and put some names to faces.. or should I say faces to forum names. A great day / evening

**rubyred** · 5th-May-2008, 01:18 PM

I would just like to say well done to all the competitors and huge congratulations to all those who won or got placed.

It was a fabulous day and the support which Blueshoes and I received both from our friends, and fellow dancers was really appreciated and kept us going all day, many many thanks.

.......still prefer names rather than numbers for the presentations, but thats about it really for gripes....... great day

Well done you were all great

Nearly got you in the lucky dip as well, I'll keep quiet in future but you danced brilliantly with my friend Barbara

**Minnie M** · 5th-May-2008, 01:41 PM

Good nights sleep

can post more now

What a fab day - I thought the standard in the lower levels (intermediate and Lucky Dip) was soooooo high - how fab is that

Too many well dones as all did so well, but have to mention the lovely Caz -didn't she do well

and those poor lads Trampy & Jamie - both poorly but still put on a great show, and well done to James for getting placed too - loved watching Blue Shoes and Rubyred - they were great and a well deserved 2nd

Only complaint was the Lucky Dip .............. it went on and on and on and on

did they have to have soooooooo many heats

Whoops second complaint ................ the Blackwall Tunnel closing at 1am

Big thank you to the yummy David Walker and his very lovely Fiance Alma for looking after me so well

What's all this about you being a poor dancer. I finally met Beo and it's not true, lovely dancer.

Also met Tangled Feet, was looking for you for that second dance, did you leave early?
