Emma Clark was in Scotland for Hogmany!

[Tiggerbabe]

I had a smashing time at the Hogmany Ball in Edinburgh last night - but it was made even more special by a surprise visit from Emma, here to visit the Chicklet :clap:

Thanks to John (DD) and Lindsay for organising the night, the venue was great. John gave us an amazing rendition of "The Snake" :worthy: and we had a couple of cabarets The Dancing Dummies :clap: and Gail from Edinburgh with some Irish Soft Shoe Dancing :clap:
Everyone had made a huge effort to dress up - lots of lovely kilts (the guys :wink: ) and amazing gowns from the ladies.

Thanks to Brunts for being my DWAS partner - great fun competition that didn't take up too much time from the freestyle. :D
Ceilidh dancing was cool! (well hot and energetic, actually - but hey! )
Thanks to everyone I danced with (the girls too!) - and special thanks to KT for making sure I was on the floor for the last dance :hug:
