[Lindsay]

Tickets now on sale & selling fast. . .

[TheTramp]

Yeah, yeah. Rub it in why don'cha.

Have you considered moving your events a little further south. Like London. Cos then I could come!

I bet it's going to be another brilliant night :tears:

If Saturday night is anything to go by, this sounds absolutely excellent! Count me in, I assume we apply via website as normal?? Bad luck tramp, looks like you'll miss out again.


:na:

[Carla]

Now a big fan of these events - I am going to this!!!!!!

:grin:

[Lindsay]

Yes- advance tickets only (see site)

[Basil Brush (Forum Plant)]

Thanks, I look forward to it. Never miss a chance to strutt my stuff, I think I am becoming a bit obsessed. . .
HELP
:sick:

[Siobhan (Forum Plant)]

Will I get the chance to partner some of you blokes from last Sat? Hope I do, to have so many great leads under one roof was heavenly!
:nice:
Who's the tramp? Have we met?:sorry

[TheTramp]

Ummm. Quite possibly. I was there last Saturday.

I was the bald, fat, ugly one who couldn't dance. At one point of the evening, if you arrived fairly early, you couldn't really miss me!!

Steve

[Basil Brush (Forum Plant)]

Ah, so that's you... were you one of the chaps 'revealing all' at one point?

[TheTramp]

Ummm. Nope. I meant 'last' Saturday - at Marco's.

Were you there??

Steve

[Basil Brush (Forum Plant)]

Nope, unfortunately. I had a christening party, celebrating my new neice, Foxella. She's not dancing yet, but I'm working on it.

[PeterL]

For some reason I thought this was on the 14th Feb and thought I couldn't go.
I wll definitely be there, if it is half as good as the party held by Boogienights the other week it is an event not to miss.

These events are great for cerocers because you get to see other dance styles and it is a lot of fun and a test of your lead to see if you can dance ceroc with somebody whose normal dance is Lindy/Swing etc.

One of the benefits of ceroc for a guy is that as long as you are a good lead you can dance with anyone.

[Basil Brush (Forum Plant)]

V. true, Peter, it's the true challenge of a good dancer if you can get through the whole record successfully, with a partner who doesn't dance your particular style! And if she is still smiling at the end, then you've truly lead well!

[Lindsay]

Going by ticket sales to date, there probably won't be any 'at the door' tickets, so book early if you wanna come! It's a night of swing, jive, pop, rock'n'roll, chart, salsa, blues... everything really!

I am coming down- don't know how to get to Portabello so might be a bit late! Looks like a nice venue.

[Siobhan (Forum Plant)]

Any tickets left for this? This is my week for booking up on everything for the next month or two!!!
:grin:

[Lindsay]

Yes- tickets still left for this event... but probably only for another few weeks....

Portobello (NB spelling) is just outside Edinburgh. You should visit www.multimap.com for directions

[Carla]

Thanks for link... but I have a lift now (with a boy) so we'll be fine. You know what women & directions can be like!

[Basil Brush (Forum Plant)]

No comment... dangerous ground methinks!

[Basil Brush (Forum Plant)]

Lindsey- we are hoping to come through to Portobello for both this party and the one at the Merlin on Sunday 16th. Any dance workshops happening ni Edinburgh (any style) on Sunday 16th (else I'll be dragged to the shops!)?
