London 1st/2nd July what's on?

[Jazz_Shoes (Ash)]

Before anyone says anything, YES I KNOW IT IS SOUTHPORT THAT WEEKEND! But, none the less I am going to be in London and want to get some dancing in while I am there, hopefully i'll be staying in Earls Court (Hotel not booked yet :sick: ) So if there are any venues nearby with any dancing on please let me know nearer the time, or whenever you know. Bear in mind that I will be taking public transport and get lost very easily, when suggesting where I should go, ta much.

ash xxx :awe:

Southport is the weekend 2-5th June. I know this. It's the day before I fly! :rolleyes:

You could always contact Blue Peter and get them to show you how to make another one, or better still get Carol Vorderman in to do it privately for you :D

[Jazz_Shoes (Ash)]

Nope, no need cause I can't remember what else I said and too lazy/busy to go and look now! But don't you remember you saying that people would still come along on saturday? Although I did think that was weird at the time cause it is a weekender :confused: oh **** it, I should be off to bed, or might make even less sense than usual...

Two, surely, but apart from a gossip what's basis of the question - is Jazz Shoes coming to London and if so, is this before Southport, or for the first weekend in July? Then we could give her a clue as to what's going on:nice:

[Jazz_Shoes (Ash)]

Yeah Ian told me about this one... and has really tempted me now because I've heard we will all be dancing by the lake.... so, good spot to jump in for a swim if it gets too hot!! :D Hoping to make it anyway!! Anybody else doing this one?

I have been offered a lift to this one, but I only want to go if there will be lots of forumites there, so???? who is going where?

Edit: Just realised this is on till 3 and I want to get back before then 'cause I will be sightseeing on the sunday :D so guess that's ruled out then :(

[Tessalicious]

If you can't go to Daventry, come to Chiswick instead - another venue with two rooms, but much easier to get to, wherever in London you're staying. The lovely Howard is teaching a blues class (and I'll be there, even if most other forumites will be at Daventry!) and it goes on til 12:30, which shouldn't be too much of a problem with Sunday's sightseeing.

:eek: - Flashback, 'Nam, Charlie's coming for us sarge... :blush:

Seriously, is it a Proper Blues Room this time? After the trauma of the first time... I'm not sure if I can survive another one like that. :sad:

[Mary]

Tell me more about Chiswick. Another year has gone by that weekend and I will HAVE to dance. And, sadly, it will have to be without Tone as he is otherwise engaged that weekend. :tears:

[Paul F]

Tell me more about Chiswick.

Hot, crowded, poor floors (one in the blues room slopes!!), decent music but I couldnt enjoy it given the conditions.

I was a bit more ferocious in my review that I posted last time I got back from there. Bit more subdued this time. :nice:

Of course, I am all for giving a venue a second chance so I would go again just to see if things have changed.

Not this time time though as Im off to Daventry :clap: :clap: :clap:

mmmmm............. does sound good and with a T-dance on the Sunday ! The drive there doesn't bother me too much, but with a 3am finish :clap: will have to check out the Travel lodges in the area :yeah:

Must resist must resist must resist must...OK DJ I know you don't like all the 'who is going where' threads etc. But really what is the problem with Ash, on a visit to London, going to venues she has never been before, wanting to know if there will be some familiar faces before she decides which venue to go to?

[Sheepman]

I will be sightseeing on the sunday Sightseeing in London? What a waste! :wink:
So when do you have to travel back? There's a plan for creamy cakey things on Monday night, :yum: :yum: oh, and a spot of dancing too...

You don't have to, you can come to Daventry. It's not like you haven't been there before! :whistle:

Spot the DJ (i don't mean the one behind the decks).

Im not quite sure what I was praying for in that picture :sick:

Damn. You foiled my plan. :blush:

2 ways out of a tight spot:
1. Dont say anything
2. Make up a word and hope the other person doesn't question it

:D
