I would pay some serious money right now to dance at a really air-conditioned venue. And no, I don't mean "one with big F-off fans blowing gale-force winds at you", I mean honest-to-God airconditioning.

Does anyone know of such a venue? Salsa or ceroc, in London / Home Counties, I'm not fussed, surely there are some ... ?

You are spoilt rotten :na: In NZ we regularly danced at these temperatures, indoors and outdoors. Just dance in shorts :rofl:

Cheshunt aircon was on the blink last week, let's hope it's fixed soon. Why do these things always break down in hot weather? Is it a law or something?

Hmmm, thanks for the others, I'll keep them in mind.

The world's not ready to see my knees. In fact, I'd also say that applies to 90+% of men. Shorts: just say no.

Especially the "black shorts / white pasty legs / black socks / black shoe" combination from hell. Guys, I'm a style vacuum, but even I know this is Not Good.

Ceroc Kidderminster is air-conditioned.

I was amused this weekend to hear "it's too darn hot" played. Kinda appropriate.

Or rather, less?
A friend of mine danced on Saturday in his nightwear. Hotel event, of course. Very lightweight, I should imagine.
Failing that, anything that exposes lots of flesh should aid the sweating process. Swimwear, club wear, underwear, etc.
Personally, I stick to shorts. Life is too short to worry about how good my legs look.

90% of human beings, actually.

In the Midlands, I've seen this combination with one of those shirts with flames printed round the hem. Must be a style black hole, here.

I don't know! :na:
I think the main nights are Mondays or Tuesdays (my stay at home nights :( )

The freestyles are usually good though - on Fridays - don't know when the next one is . . . . . not much use tonite am I?

Look on the Ceroc central (http://www.ceroccentral.com/cgi-bin/public/view.cgi?template=layouts/templatehome.tpll) website for more info :D

Did I mention that it was 32 C in my bedroom last night? :really:
Left curtains drawn and windows open all day and I thnk I've got it down to 29 C :grin:

I don't know if we want to know how 'hot' it got in you bedroom last night, young lady! :whistle: :wink:

Anyway, I've just read the forcast for London and the Southeast and apparently the heatwave is set to last for another 10days! :waycool: :clap:

Oooh I do love the sun! :grin:

What's it like everywhere else? :)

It's a big round(ish) very hot thing in the sky over my town Lory, but of course, that's not important right now :wink: :yum:

Let me rephrase that as :what: :angry: :tears: :eek: :sick:

(Combination of heat and hayfever, so I can either be mildly affected and very sweaty, or very affected and mildly sweaty. Decisions, decisions)


Oooh I do love the sun! :grin:
I love my skin too - this weekend, I and it stayed inside...

Aww David :hug: Allow me to recommend you use a factor 30 sunscreen, a non-drowsey anti-hystamine and a large dose of anti-grumpamine :wink:

Come on, think of all the positive sides... ice-cream, :yum: walking on grass with no shoes, :drool: wearing very little (less washing) :clap: cooking on the BBQ and paper plates, (no washing up), :clap: Pimms, :drool: water fights and badminton in the garden, :clap: watching your little boy play happily for hours in a paddling pool (I bought a little one for my niece last week £1-50 in cheap shop = hours of fun) :clap: :clap: :clap:

Twickenham Wednesdays & Hastings Monday both have full air con

Hastings last night - full air conditioning, zoned for seating area and dance area, the venue was sooo cool - but who wants to go dancing when the weather is this good. I had to be there but any dancer that supports their local venue in these tempratures gets my vote :clap:

What's it like everywhere else? :) 19 C, generally cloudy, some sun.

We did have a nice day on Sunday, I'm sure it got up to 22 C (and sunny all afternoon and evening). That's about as 'heatwave' as we get here :rofl:

I agree about the advantages though - I esp like the 'wearing less clothes bit :waycool: :wink:
