Dancing Highs -

- My first night at Ceroc last February; walked out of the venue a foot and a half off the floor, mainly because of Kelly Hudson. Thanks, babe.
- Making so many new and utterly fantastic friends.
- All the dancing. D'uh.
- Camber. Oh..Camber.

Roll on Bognor!

Dancing Lows -

- Getting turned down for dances (I know: I'm too sensitive).

Dancing Highs :

1. Starting ceroc back in feburary.
2. All the new friends I have met through dancing.
3. Being asked to dance in the Dundee Cabaret Team.
4. The Scottish Comp - what a day that was!!!

5. Gus's workshops on 23rd (especially club jive one).
6. 10th anniversary party plus the party that continued back at the travel inn.
7. Dundee party last night.
8. And last but not least dancing every wednesday at dundee.

Dancing Lows :

I have been thinking about this for a couple of days (how sad is that!!) and last night managed to provide me with my one and only low!

1. After the Dundee party we converged on Deja Vu where the DJ committed the ultimate crime of playing Madness but not just once he played 6 of their songs in a row!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :reallymad :reallymad

Cheers

Highs -

In no particular order:-

Chateau Jive in April - a fab weekend in glorious surroundings.

Chance2dance in Blackpool - great fun, great dancing and the Milk Tray Boys - who could forget them?

Double Trouble Workshop - H & Kirsty Workshop in Glasgow and Aberdeen, Gus' Workshops but most especially the Club Jive One.

West coast Swing classes with Diane and Graham and finally learning how to Cha Cha.

The Scottish Championships in Musselburgh - what a day!
Dancing with Elliot in the lucky dip (having said to everyone on the Saturday night that I was definitely going to ask that young man for a dance on the Sunday!)
Dancing in the Double Trouble with Dave and Heather - great fun!
Winning the Team Cabaret with the rest of the Dundee Crew - we were totally high for weeks after, what a fab bunch of people.

All of the parties I've been to over the year - including the 23rd November, I've had some brilliant dances, thanks guys (and girls!)

Meeting so many new people thanks to this forum - Well done Franck.

Lows -

Glasgow and Aberdeen parties finishing at 12 midnight - what's that all about?

Not being able to go to all the events I want to.

Which explains the look of sheer joy that was on your face

The rest of the MAd crew had a blast -

and even Franck was dancing like a Mad(ness)man - nothing unusual there then?

Floyd · 8th-December-2002, 10:55 PM

Nice to know it's not just me!

But Steve, surely you remember the Monty Python "Blackmail" sketch, where the revelations keep coming, and the price keeps going up, until the victim eventually phones in with the money?

Well ........ I do have photos ............

DaveD · 15th-December-2002, 12:27 PM

My own highs and a few lows were

* Musselburgh, Scottish championships - a wild weekend! Looking forward to next year's already

* Being part of the Dundee cabaret team - great bunch of people, lot of laughs during rehearsals, great reception at the competition

* Doing double trouble with Sheena and Heather at Musselburgh - thanks girls!

* Our 25th Wedding anniversary party in August - loads of Ceroc friends there, plus lots of non-Cerocing friends who hopefully will give it a shot!

* Blackpool - great weekend, great venue

* Heather & team's "get the party started" routine for Franck's birthday at Glasgow - brilliant

* Scot's team cabaret rehearsal at Dundee

Lows

* 2311 Great atmosphere- just not enough space

* Missing Hammersmith this year - especially since Scot's team won the cabaret routine
