I thought it might be interesting (and quite fun) to see what people looked like when they first started dancing compared to how they look now. Obviously all you people that have only discovered the wonders of dancing fairly recently will have it fairly easy on this thread, but for old-timers like myself it's likely to be quite an eye-opener :eek: .
Anyway, to be brave I've been digging and have found a photo taken of me after I won my first ever trophy at a ballroom dancing competition (I was 6 and came 6th in the Samba at the Crystal Palace Comp).
Feel free to laugh at my expense :rolleyes: (though I must warn you that my Mum made my dress for me... :waycool: ).

Wow! If this had been a "Guess the baby" kind of thing I'd actually have got you!

No point in me posting, as give or take a few grey hairs and wrinkles I haven't changed much in the last 3.5 years.

I was actually thinking that might be a good idea too - 'Guess the Baby'. but of course we'd all have to go on and post pictures as unregistered users...
Might be fun?

Easiest thing would be for everyone to send their images to one person and for that person to post them and monitor responses. I'm happy to volunteer - if anyone's interested PM or email me through the forum and I'll send you my email address so you can forward the image you want posted.

Tiggerbabe: You haven't changed much either! Judging by you two, dancing must keep you young! Shame I didn't start earlier! :tears:

The first one was taken a few months before I tried Ceroc, in the days I only knew about Lindy, the second one was in April this year at Rock Bottom's (OK I know it should be in the fancy dress thread.)

why - a cigar surely doesnt count as fancy dress?! Oh, well you are wearing a tux too I suppose.
