Ok, I know it's only january, but......

Just thought I'd check out who's going to "Jiving You Crazy"! 10-13 June 2005. Anyone from Scotland?? For once in a lifetime I actually want to book in time, to avoid the disappointment of not getting a ticket.... :sad: And also see if there's anyone I can travel down with / share hotel etc?

Give me a shout if you're going!!!

I got a confirmation - but I think it was for Scarborough. I think you maybe get a confirmation when you have paid the full amount. If the cheque has been cashed then they have received your booking OK.

Lynn and I were just putting our heads together and we thought it would be a really nice idea if all the forumites :waycool: could be accommodated near to one another, should they want to be :wink:

I've just had a word with one of the team from Jive Addiction, they were very nice and they said it was no problem, as long as we let them know well in advance! :cheers: :clap:

Also, as it's going to be summer, maybe we could have a BBQ or picnic?? :grin: (which would also be easier to organise if we were near to each other)

Monkey Are we still going to have the forum reception on the Fri evening too? Its a great way to start the weekend and would give us a chance to plan the BBQ/picnic - those who aren't able to make it in time for the forum reception can join us at the BBQ.

I have no problem with my chalet being near those of other Forumites - but what I think would be a really grand plan is that if the forumites' chalets were put close to the dancing venue :clap: (so we don't have to trek for miles and miles to get to where it's all happening). It's obvious from the amount of time we all spend on the forum talking about dancing that we're all nuts about it - so we're highly likely to be toing and froing a lot...
... so, how about it, guys? Please? :cheers:
