Hi folks

Anyone going on the dance holiday to Las Palmas on 3rd Jan flying from Edinburgh may be in for a shock when they see their tickets! Flight time is now 7am!!! not 13.35 as originally stated. I phoned the airline to make sure and apparently it was changed last week. :mad:

I'm sure we are going to have a great time but it will certainly be an EARLY start!

Anyone wanting to get together to discuss the bus etc from Aberdeen send me an e-mail.

Another little change......no air conditioning in the bedrooms! Sweaty stuff!:sick:

See you fellow travellers soon

Not going in Jan - but the one in Nov looks like fun:wink:

my ticket hasn't arrived!!!!
(when did you get yours Sandy?? should I be worried??)

7 am flight means 5 am at aeroporto so no sleep for Abs folks!!

Sandy
22nd-October-2003, 09:55 AM
Ooooops so mad meant 3rd November!!!

Just letting off steam about the lack of communication. I know it will be a great dancing experience.

Just got the tickets this morning, along with the confirmation which they supposedly sent out couple of months ago!!

Promise no more whingeing, only fun, fun, fun

Sandy :nice:

We're going. Also have a 7 am flight from Gatwick, but we are used to this as skiing flights always seem to be at some godforsaken hour as well. Still haven't had our tickets yet.

I wouldn't worry about AC - it's November!!:na:

Really looking forward to it. Bill & Bex are smashing people and both great teachers (I sometimes demo with Bill at Twyford, and Tony has occasionally demo-ed with the lovely Bex at Uxbridge). Met Lorna a few weeks ago at Amir's workshop and she seems like great fun. Will try to identify you at the airport (at the other end that is), but hey, we've got a week to work it out!!:wink:

thought I'd better resurrect this thread so as not to get into trouble:innocent:

I have packed 4 times and have been practicing waking up at 3 am for the past 3 nights:eek:

Do we know if the Ed flight is just me and you Abs-on-the-bus lot???

I know what you mean! I really don't have anything 70's apart from a kind of flary pair of trousers which will have to do. Will get a head band and maybe a pair of John Lennon glasses (are they 70's?).

Silver anything will do for the "silver" party.

See you there

Long John who :D

Not cutting a leg off for anyone.............. not even Lorna. Mind you could make some moves really interesting :na: and give me an ideal excuse for crap spinning.

Bought some silver material today so hoping Fran can help do something over the weekend.

As for 70's................ only just thrown out my 70's outfits :sorry :wink: .......wonder if I still have a tank top lying somewhere.......................

Will there be lots of mini skirts and hot pants then :rolleyes:

Sandy, Sandy, Sandy *shakes head* too many clothes and you're only going away for one week - that's terrible :wink:

Ditch the hair dryer, the extra pair of not-dancing shoes and a few of the toiletries (you can buy more when you get there
:D )

The mini and the hot pants are a must

Have a great time *green smilie*

Thanks Sheena. Your'e right, must get the priorities sorted out!

Didn't you have a little too much weight in your case last time???:devil: You take a suitcase on a party night, can't imagine what a week's worth would be like!:wink:

See you at the beach hopefully

Hi everyone,

well, the sun is shining and we´re having a great time. At least 27 or 28 degrees here. Spending loads of time on the beach.

Sandy and the rest of the Scottish ladies went clubbing the other night and ended up in a strip joint. I´ll let her fill you in on the details later.

Classes are going well and everyone is really lovely.

Will post when I get home.

Lotsa love Lorna x-x

Just got a text from Mary; she says:

"4 the forum: Lorna is a gorgeous dancer, & Bill Foreman is 2 die 4. Hot and sunny, but today a bit cloudy & hot."

It doesn't sound like they're having much of a time out there, does it :D :D

Bah. I don't want to be there at all... I'd rather be in front of this computer screen.... not :innocent: :innocent:

OK. I'm going to be very brave and start a new thread.:eek:

Met some fabulous forumites who I hope I will see lots more of in the future.

The classes. Bill Cooper & George, and Bex and Tony were great and we are spoilt rotten in having them all the time down here. So Lorna & Bill's classes I thought would be a bit of a change!!! Wow! I now put them up there with the gods of dancing like Amir, and Nigel & Nina et al. I had a ball at their workshops, but maybe that's because I'm just a right old tart who loves to camp it up something rotten!:wink: Seriously guys, it was great to feel re-inspired again - massive thanks for putting me back on the track again.:hug: :hug: :cheers: Aberdeen is very lucky:wink:

When it came to party time I'm afraid me and Tone (aka Prawny) were a bit wussy. Didn't manage to experience the 'much later' clubbing, so also missed the male strippers!:tears:

Had lots of ladies comment on Tony's dancing (he was kept very busy:wink: ) but I've had to leave him outside - couldn't get his head thru' the door.:devil:

Hope everyone got back safely. Now, when's the next party?

Hi everyone , just wanted to say that really enjoyed meeting everyone on the Las Palmas holiday and especially meeting the people on the forum.
The weather was good for the first part of the week , the food was great (with loads of garlic in everything) and the company was excellent. :waycool:

Great to see and dance with Lorna again and great to meet and dance with Bill and the lovely Scottish ladies. Must do it again ?

Hope to see you all soon.

Sgt Billco. :cheers:

Oh Sgt Billco the pleasure was all ours!!!:yum: :yum:

What a fantastic dancer ladies if you haven't had the chance to sample for yourselves. Vem Vet will never be the same:wink:

There are just not enough words to describe what a fab holiday it was. The very yummy Oscar which every lady wanted to ...........dance with!

A few exciting times on the beach, near death experiences let me tell you!:sick: But some hot hot stuff as well, remember the photo Bill:wink: :devil:

Such lovely people. Great dancing.

Totally shattered but very happy

Will be back with more info when the brain gets back to normal

Thanks Lorna W. for sharing and putting up with me and thanks to all the fab teachers including our own Lorna and Bill

Bye for now

PS met lovely lassies from Glasgow and Edinburgh, all fun loving!

Sandy:kiss: :wink:


PPS: The Aberdeen crowd were amazing! Never knew them well before but boy I do now! I'm not the only crazy one!!!

Sandy x 'Dance with the devil' is (I think) probably called 'Dance with me' by Michael Bolton. I played it at Peterculter a couple of weeks back. You can't have been there that week. Also definitely played it at the Friday night party 2 weeks ago. And Hayley and I almost used it for the cabaret in Edinburgh last Saturday - though in the end, we decided to go with 'Fire' instead.

Something about No.1 would probably be 'Straight to Number One' by Touch and Go. Again, I've played it before - at least twice now. Again, you must have not been there that week :D

See you tonight!

Steve

BillCo
11th-November-2003, 03:33 PM
Hope to catch up soon Sandy !!

I also liked a song that Erick played , don't know what it is called,
it's a Latin sound and has Toro toro or something like that in the middle . :what:

Sgt Billco.

Bill
11th-November-2003, 03:44 PM
Well back at work and trying hard to concentrate :sick:

What a week.................:D was a wonderful experience and felt well and truly knackered at the end of the week - but in a great way. :na:

Some lovely dancers and a real joy to meet so many really nice people from all over the country. Didn't see enough of Bill & Bex and George and Tony dancing but some great style and plenty to help all of us improve.


And what can we say about the Aberdeen 'crew' - if they didn't do their own thing before they certainly will now so watch out lads - thanks Lorna :rolleyes: :what:

And a very special thanks to Lorna for inviting me along and now dancers from the south know just how good she is :wink:

Will I make the class tonight...................... :na:

The teachers were fantastic and I've learnt some great new moves:wink:

Hi everyone,

had a day now to recover and god did I need it. I am completely knackered!! :really:

Had a fab holiday and met some really great people.

I enjoyed the classes. Was very nervous before the first one as Bill will confirm but once we got started there was no stopping us. Was there ladies? :wink:

I must apologise to every male dancer in Britain. Let's just say that I may have brought a few ladies out of themselves if you know what I'm saying. Not encouraging them to lead, would I dare? But instead, injecting a bit of fun and passion into their dancing. What fun we had!!

Big thanks to George, Bill and Becky for taking me under their wing. We had a great time. See that Bill, hate him but he's a really lovely person so he is. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: (private joke)

Big thanks to Bill Foreman, what can I say. You were fantastic and you worked really hard, thank you.
:hug:

Eric the DJ, what a riot that guy is. You still got my spangly bangles? Wear them with pride young man. You need to get up to Scotland sometime soon. We'd love to have you,....Franck?

Thanks to everyone I danced with. Think I danced with most of the men. If I didn't then I apologise but I was dancing with a lot of women too.

Great holiday, you need to book up on one of these. Thanks Oscar for all your hard work.

Lotsa of love Lorna x-x

Hi All,

Thought I'd put my few penneth in too about Las Palmas!!

Met some great people and had some great dances - my poor feet are enjoying the rest now we're back at home.

Can't wait to have a sleep in this weekend after all those early morning classes I did, apologies to everyone who took part with Tony and I, I honestly thought my head was going to spin off some mornings!!!

Lovely to meet the 'Aberdeen massive' you guys truly know how to party! Can't wait for Billco and I to come up some time and see you all again. We should try and do it on the same weekend as Erick and have a wee reunion!

We're hoping to see Oscar (aka Emma Jency) in the next couple of months, so ladies if you have any private messages for him please let us know!!! :wink:

Take care all,
Bex

Erick played some good music, so bring him along. As for Oscar, what can I say, except he did a great job with us all, he's cute:wink: :wink: , he's a good dancer when persuaded to get up on the dance floor, so give him a big hug from me:hug: :hug: and I hope to see you all soon

I agree Kay, and my plan, if we can find suitable dates would be to bring Billco and Bex up to teach workshops etc... next year and possibly have Erick DJ-ing...
If dates suit, I'm aiming for one of the next Beach Ballroom big week-end, in February or May next year.
I reckon that would be a great reunion occasion for all the Las Palmas Cerocers. :cheers: :waycool:

Oh my God... Look who is back !!!
;)
After a very long absence from this forum.. I am back !!
Anyway, I have just been reading all the stuff about Las Palmas... but there's nothing about Lorna and George getting slaughtered on Black Russians sharking the Barmen at Markesita !!
Actually... there's no HOT gossip... anyway, you know me... I will give you all the details later on today !!

One thing I do want to say though, thank you very much to all the Scottish crowd, you really made what could have been a really boring holiday - for me -, something I will definetly remember... we had such a great time !! and Bill, I am sorry I lost your Angie Stone CD but I will replace it as soon as.

Frank... I am waiting for your invite... would be brilliant to see everyone !!

Lorna, I gave Martin the bracelet as a present but he was less than impressed... how ungrateful I thought...
Got all the latest on George last night and it's hot hot hot !!

:( he also said that he will be sorting out whoever had called me Big Fat Pink Thing !!

Be back later.... I've got some pictures too...

Erick

What about all of us more mature party animals. Ok so I didn't end up in a strip joint and stay out till 5.00am but 3.30 two nights in a row is pretty late for some of us :rolleyes:

And I even complimented the music you were playing - well apart from the karaoke/dance routine under the stars :D

Look forward to seeing you if you make it up with B & B in Feb.

13th-November-2003, 11:41 AM

Of course you are invited... how can I forget you !!!
The man who danced to every single track... I played !!

I've had really bad flu since I got back..... must have caught something on the plane !!

As for the Karaoke performance.... Arturo phoned me yesterday and said that he'd had a fantastic time.... - ok won't give you the details - but.... he asked if there was any chance he could come to England and do a full 30 minute show !!!! :sick:
What do you think....???????? May be we can ask Franck....??

Hope you are well.
See ya !!

Of course you can swear, but that might mean the thread will be moved 'upstairs'... Though after the 'Double Bill' picture, it probably should anyway :really:

Anyway, it now looks like the 21st February will be an amazing party, with Billco and Bex appearing as guest teachers, Erick the pink spinning the tunes and everybody else who was in Las Palmas turning up for a great night at the Beach Ballroom! :waycool:

Strip club, Salsa club, easily confused:innocent:

Has to be mentioned.............what about Chicklet's fab outfit on the last night! The fantastic head gear, not to mention the amazing trouser suit (not the office type I can assure you!).

Bill your trousers!*!

The fancy dress gear was amazing, some people went to a lot of effort.

Mary, I thought Tony looked really scary in the wig and moustache! Some kind of Mexican gringo (not sure that's the right word!)

Lorna doesn't log on too often but I'm sure she'll add a few comments.

The 'do' is at the Beach Ballroom which oddly enough is down by the beach so it'll be lovely and warm at the end of February ( bring your thermals !!) A great venue and sprung wooden floor.

Sure you'll go down a storm :D

Haven't seen Lorna on here for ages !! where she gone ??:tears: Hi eric,

got a bit of a cold too. By the way, what was that 'Lorna quote' you were going to put on. I can't think. I'm sure it didn't involve sweary words.

I can't believe that your beau didn't appreciate my jingly jangles. Obviously doesn't recognise class trash when he sees it.

So you are coming up then in Feb. Fab!
(Remember to bring some Angie Stone with you :wink: )

I too have some fab photos and will get then on soon, promise. You all know I'm crap with computers, so will have to wait for Tim to sort them out.

Lotsa love, Lorna x-x

Dear Lorna !!

At last you are back !!
I thought that was soooo ungrateful of him !! I'm never bringing him anything back again from my international travel !!

To everyone... I apologise to those still living in the dark ages without broadband as I understand from Will it takes ages to download the pictures I posted.... well, tough.... !!!

As for Lorna's famous quote :
With a THICK scottish accent !!:grin:

" You see that one over there, he's such a f*****g moron and he moans and moans and he is such a ****** and a ***** and I hate him but don't get me wrong.... HE`S SUCH A LOVELY PERSON !!! "

Ok.... I suppose you had to be there !!

Have a nice weekend.

Lorna
16th-November-2003, 02:31 PM
Eh, I don't think so Eric. Those words never even entered my mind nevermind left my mouth.

I did say the last bit quite a lot though, but I would never have said all those sweary words. You must have been drunk and made it up. Oh my god, what will everyone think!

Ah I remember what happened. You were all slagging me off for saying, 'he's a really lovely person' all week. Bill started the 'quote' with all the sweary words, then you all joined him with the 'but he's a really lovely person' in unison. Was really funny at the time and was in no way a personal attack on anyone. I remember it now. It was on the way to the venue one evening. Am I right? :nice:

Seeyou soon,

Lotsa love Lorna x-x
