In your dreams Rob..:rolleyes:

Oh er. Or was it my dreams? mmm...yes.:blush:

I am contemplating St Neots (for the first time in over 2 years!). Not sure I can face the music though, any idea who the Dj is this time Rob?

[littlewiggle]

ASKERN MINERS WELFARE -Well Let me know how you get on. I'd be interested to know. I once trekked all the way there only to find there were about 14 people (at the most!) I'd telephoned beforehand and was told they were expecting quite a few. The doorman felt so bad that he danced with me rather alot after that! Definitely wasn't worth a visit then!

[spindr]

The local cognoscenti have recommended "Strictly No Techno".

"It's time again for the best Freestyle of the month..Smooth Jive Fusion's "Strictly no Techno" evening at the Allendale Centre Wimborne. We will be playing a mix of R&B, Swing, Neo Tango and music that you can Jive to all night as well as Salsa, West Coast Swing etc."

As far as I know Paul is in India :sick:

Yes, but given how much he enjoyed his last visit (http://www.cerocscotland.com/forum/showpost.php?p=213973&postcount=28) I am sure he'd make the 3,000 or whatever mile journey to be there.

Nice as it would be to see you there ZW, I have to say I think you'll hate
* the music - don't know who's DJing but on each of the 4 occasions I have been to a NEOTS freestyle it's been similar
* the predatory ladies
* the lack of space until about 11.30

I'm looking forward to it as it's my 1 year freestyle anniversary - this time last year at the same venue was the first pure freestyle night I attended. Seems a lot longer ago than that :grin:

Rob

[Piglet]

Stirling Tea Dance and workshops this Sunday :D

[Heather]

I reckon I'll be going to Marco's in Edinburgh on Saturday.
Anyone else going??:clap:

:hug:

I'm going to 2 different retirement do's on Friday one is a dinner at the Invercarse Dundee and the other is a buffet/dance in the Dundee Club (although I think I'll decline the buffet as I'll have stuffed my face at the dinner !:rofl: )

[bigdjiver]

I plan to go to St. Neots. I have always enjoyed it there.

[Lynn]

Midsummer Dinner Dance Fri night (in NI), Funky Lush Sat, T-Jive Sunday. :grin:

[ShinyWeeStar]

Hopefully the Stirling tea dance on Sunday. :grin:

[Freya]

Stirling Tea Dance and workshops this Sunday :D
:yeah: Should be a great day out!

[Tiggerbabe]

Tea dance for me, too :wink:

[TheTramp]

Workshops in Wellington, with Mandy as a demo :flower:

Oh, and I think on Saturday, Mandy's sister is having a birthday party, with the theme being pimps, prostitues and catholics. I have no idea what I'm going as yet*.... :innocent:


(*But I'm looking forward to seeing Mandy's outfit!!)

[Piglet]

prostitues
You have to go as one of these and post pics so we know what you are...:whistle:

[Cruella]

Seems a lot longer ago than that :grin:

Rob
Yes, a lot longer!!! :innocent:

[Donna]

Oh well :sad: found out this was cancelled. :tears: Still going to the freestyle though of course :grin: but no demo.

I loved Marco's although I only managed the last half hour last Thursday, I was very impressed with the Salsa bar after.:cheers:

Its a little far for one night even for me (4 hours):really:

Lovely to meet you, hope to see you again soon:flower:

[PeteK]

Current plan is Stockport (will be up North for the weekend) - haven't been there in ages but I remember it used to be great.

Since I'm going to the Casbah (South Ken) on Friday night, it promises to be a pretty fun weekend.

Hmm I think you're right Rob, maybe I'll give it a miss. Have a good night and

:clap: Happy Anniversary! :clap:

Stewart38- I've been to the xmas parties the past few years and a summerball at Askern, as it's 20 mins away from my Mum and Dad's home. I've always had an excellent time there- nice floor, very friendly. Hope you enjoy it if you go.

As a beginner you should be honoured women ask you to dance you seem to think that’s a draw back ??

[onkar]

The DJ at St Neots this Friday is John, who normally DJ's at Letchworth and Biggleswade.

I guess you refer to the predatory ladies comment?

I flagged that up as a problem for women attending (as ZW was considering doing). Me? I love predatory women :grin:

[s9691]

Me? I love predatory women :grin:

Look forward to seeing you at St Neots then Rob, so I can practice my 'predatory woman' thing... Woohoo!

Sara

[Swinging bee]

I'll be at JAG Jive's Freestyle on Saturday in Bookham Surrey playing some cool tunes in the S & B room whilst John Miller will be playing more cool tunes in the Main Hall. Almost sold out again, so should be fun! Hope to see lots of you there. :clap:

[DavidY]

I'm planning to go to the Ceroc Central freestyle in Derby on Friday night.

The regular DJ from Thursday nights at Rugby, Chris, :worthy: :worthy: , is due to be there.

He plays some fab and varied music, and I'd recommend his music to people in the area (unless you only like the more repetitive modern dance/chart music, in which case you might be disappointed...).

[Twirly]

Is anyone going to Hammersmith tomorrow night? I wasn't, as I'm doing a workshop on Sunday, but just been asked by a friend and am sorely tempted. Just hope my feet will forgive me if I give in and go!

[Zebra Woman]

I will be at Funky Lush Saturday - and that is all.

I'm looking forward to seeing Ray and Jane :clap:

Sunday, it has to be the football.

England EXPECTS :D .


ZW

[WittyBird]

Is anyone going to Hammersmith tomorrow night?

There is a large possibility I will be there :D Going to a friends party first but then need to get to Hammersmith to meet MissyD :D

[Twirly]

I'd love to - but not sure how I'd recognise/find you! Unless you really do look like your avatar... :whistle:

Please do try and find us!

[Twirly]

K, am definitely going tonight with my (male) friend and really looking forward to it - hope I catch up with you guys. :clap:

Will hang around the stage and see if I can spot you - so if you see a woman checking other women out rather than the guys, then you'll know it's me! :really:

[Minnie M]

And Mandy's other half could possibly make a appearance at Daventry on Saturday :clap: :clap: :clap:

Funky Lush was great last night. Toby played some more uptempo stuff which worked well. It was so good to see Ray and Jane. :flower: Both looking really well, at least until Rays nose incident! I told you Ray, the girls hit back over here! :D
A real treat to have Jenny and Danny turn up.:drool: We're dying to try out these facials! :rofl:
Some other pleasant surprises too, Amir and Cat, Jockey, Carol and Beyton and lots of othe fabby dancers.
Unfortunately the night ended on a low, when we discovered one of the cars had been broken into and had some stuff stolen.:angry:

Well I managed to find WB and Tessalicious, but not anyone else. Had a good night too - though no idea of the names of anyone I danced with. Oh the joys of being relatively new to all of this! :whistle:

Had a good natter with Tess at the workshop today (when she eventually recognised me :whistle: ) so hopefully I'll be able to find her another time and meet you guys properly. :kiss:

[Lynn]

What a lovely weekend. Funky Lush was fab, the Jango workshop was nice and tangoey, the T-jive with tasty music and cake, and such a friendly crowd, was one of the nicest afternoons dancing I've had, and the weekend was rounded off nicely in the Berko blues room.
