Yes, I love it but it looks so silly!

I'd love to be blindfolded in a room full of leads that I know well and see if I can guess who's who! by lory



From another thread.


Anybody up for some fun on Sunday afternoon at Southport in the blues room. :cheers:

Blindfolded dancing with various partners and see if you can work out who your leader is. :eek:

I am sure John and Wes won't mind us using a small area in that room. :flower:

Sounds like fun. Does it work the other way around too? That you guys will guess your follower?

I would probably be identified by the regularity with which I say "oops, sorry" :blush: I think you too may well be identifiable U.P. :flower:

Sure, sounds cool... :waycool:
That's probably how my partners often feel, anyway...not knowing where they should be... :grin:

Great idea UP, I'd give it a go!

:yeah:

We should have teams, men against women... :wink:

Blindfold one man and one woman, then choose random people to send in, once each person has guessed correctly or passed, we send in the next, see who wins? :cool: :D

I'll probably give myself away by laughing though :rolleyes: :rofl:

That depends. I am not sure how many followers like to be 'accidentally' touched in indecent spots. :rofl:

Afraid you might enjoy it? :yum:My Calvinist upbringing means I could never countenance such concentrated Fun for an entire weekend. I already have to spend my non-dance evening sitting in an ice-cold bath having my toenails pulled off as penance.

OOOh fear not, I'm sure we can think of a few alternatives, to make you suffer equally at Southport, couldn't we girls? :wink:

I'm confused, are you a turnip or an ass now? Avatar says one thing, sig another... or maybe your hybrid? Scary thought...

An Assnip? Or a Turnkey?

IF there are tickets left for Southport and IF I can get a job sorted :tears: then I'd be well up for this. But could we maybe do a partner swap rotating dance beforehand, so that we've got a pretty good shot at guessing?

We could banish ESG to a kitchen whip up a gourmet midnight feast & breakfast in a crisp white apron? :devil:

Bags I ESG in his apron to do midnight snacks in the Singleton Sofa Chalet (should there be one- SpinDr suggested it and I like the idea!).

Can we have bacon sandwiches though? Or maybe chips and mayonnaise... or a Chocolate Nemesis... :drool:

I'll be there. Can we up the stakes a bit? Let's steal Nelson's "anti-bouncy hand" exercise. You hold a paper cup three quarters full of water in your lead hand while taking your partner through various moves. Beginner moves to start with and I wouldn't recommend hand changes.

Probably best if followers remain blindfolded for this one so leaders have got a reasonable chance of escape if it all goes horribly wrong. I'll ask Julie to bring along a hairdryer and I'm sure the venue will provide a mop and bucket!

Got confirmation of our places for Southport - with FoxyLady and former muggle Jo. Our chalet will henceforth be known as either the vixens' den or minxes' palace - likely to be the epicentre of activity involving red wine, good cake and Pink Martini.

What I want to know is who is supplying the blindfolds and what will they be made of? Black velvet? Pink silk? If ESG offers Calvinist ones made from sackcloth, I don't want to play :blush: but it does sound like fabulous fun. I fully intend to take my practising earlier in the weekend very seriously. :clap: :clap:
