Best Dancers

Does this make accountants the 'best' ????

Well, Matt (Head of Blitz) is an ex-accountant, Lilian (mother of PunkFish and an excellent demo and dancer in her own right) is another accountant.

However, I seem to remember that when I was still in the Ceroc Teacher Association seeing the emial list and a significant number of the teachers seemed to work for either Oracle or PWC consulting....... draw your own conclusions.

Just a few thoughts on why people from some professions may be good

Accountants - rich, can afford to go to any and all workshops
Lawyers - as per accountants
Teachers - so much free time that they can use to practice
Scientists - clever people, have no problem working out how to dance well

But the best dancers don't come from any particular profession - they are just the ones who learnt to dance at the age of 5 instead of waiting until they became adults.

PS. Expecting howls of outrage from the accountants and lawyers who think they are as clever as any scientist.
And from teachers who don't think they have plenty of free time.

Given the wide ranging 'tolerance'in Spain and France .... please could you be so bold as to state an activity that would be illegal????

It had to be an accountant cos that what Nigel did for a living.

I think? VIktor was also doing that as well or something but then I could be wrong.

Do you mean Jules Flower, Kate ? (teaches with NIgel at Hipsters) if so she is a psychologist and there isn't a category for her either !

I'm sure that Minnie actually meant you Kate, not me!!

My ex-landlady is also both a lawyer and excellent dancer, though she's not seen around much anymore (Michelle).

Actually I forgot Kate was a law student too - sorry Kate

[TheTramp]

Also of course, Carol Hatton (who competed with me at Blackpool 2 years ago (in the red shimmy dress), and at Beach Boogie) is also both a lawyer and fantastic dancer.

I'm sure that more will occur too

Do you mean nearly great, or nearly in the legal profession?

You could be right there Greg, after all he is 'only a beginner'

You are both right - Jules was a psychologist, but she's requalifying as a lawyer (unless she's seen sense and changed her mind! )
