Hey SSS

My good lady an' me will be there. I've been asked to do a spot of DJing too so looking forward to giving the old knees a rest at some point in the night. I like the Idea of several DJs as everyone plays a slightly different style of swing. Should be a good bash

Or so you thought mwhahahahaha!
SwingSwingSwing pulls out his bottle of Ceroc antidote concealed deep within the pockets of his baggy trousers. A few drops and he's as right as rain. :D

He retreats to his lair, working out a particularily vicious Charleston combination that he'll use should their paths cross again. (Which may well be at the Glasgow party)

There's less than 3 weeks to go until the Spring Fling!

A bunch of us made the trek to Peebles on Saturday to catch the Borders Big Band (who are playing in the Spring Fling). All I can say is "Wow". (hmm, there's not an appopriate smiley to describe this so I'll just use :D )Their sound is fantastic.

If you've never danced to the sound of a BIG big band then March 8th is your chance.

Not that anyone's going to see this as everybody seems to be at Blackpool but there is only week to go until the ESDS Spring Swing Fling.

Dance night this Friday 7th March at Marco's.
Workshops all day Saturday and Sunday at Beginners, Intermediates and Advanced levels.

And the big dance on the Saturday night with Borders Big Band.

Cheers
