    Daventry on 29th December?

    Gypsy Rose and I are considering attending the ball in Daventry on 29th December. Since Daventry is some distance from Exeter, we have not danced there before and should be most grateful if anyone could let us know what it is like and what form the evening will take.

    Many thanks.

    Its the best free style in the country IMO

    I'm just sooooo lucky I can go its Maddy's birthday and she is having her party on the 28th so I can go (her idea)

    its a late one Marc is DJing in he blues with Rob Ambridge in the main room, I keep fit just flitting back and forth, I love 'em both

    Is there definitely going to be a separate blues room? I heard that the Saxon suite was otherwise booked, but they were trying to arrange for an alternative room. Anyone know for sure?

    As far as I know, there is only one room, however, myself and Claire S are all set outfit-wise and are really looking forward to this

    The evening as far as i am aware will be in both rooms - the blues room (saxon suite) and the main hall (6 badminton courts - rather large!!)

    The event is ticket only, you can order them online though at www.ceroccentral.com

    With regards to the leathers, bring it on!!!!

    Hope to see loads of you there.

    Re: Daventry on 29th December?

    Few points about the SINderella thing at Dav.-

    1. I don't think there is a separate blues room this time, but there will be a blues set from Marc. At least that is what has happened at previous post Christmas events here. The other free styles at Dav have had a separate blues room but not the Christmas one. I might be wrong on this - anyone know for sure?

    2. It is a ticket only event but you can order on line from the ceroc central web-site. Do not worry about Christams post either - tickets that are ordered late can be picked up on the door (I asked Emma about this last week and she said that after a certain date she wont post out the tickets),

    3. I think the fire limit at Dav. is about 700, though if that many tun up it will get pretty crowded. Normally they get around 400 to 500 for this event I think.

    The theme is SINderaella so it is a case of cinders does sinful. Most ladies will either "dress to impress" in smart sparkly evening wear or go down the sin route to varying degrees (anything form a bit of cleavage to leather, whips and chains I guess). Bit harder for the men (no pun intended) - a sexy prince charming perhaps? Something reasonably smart and preferably sexy anyway.

    As to the form of the evening there will proably be one "fun" class and some sort of caberet interlude but most of the time it will be free style all the way and with Rod A and Marc performing the DJ duties you can guarantee some great music. There will also be champagne and candles - Emma and her team go to a lot of trouble to try to create a special atmosphere with decorations and stuff that is in keeping with the theme.

    The venue is a modern lesure centre with dancing taking place in the main sports hall which is normally used for mutiple badminton or 5 a side footpall pitches. It has a good wooden floor and is obviously very large. Oh and parking is dead easy as well as there is a large free car park adjacent to the venue.

    Re: Daventry on 29th December?

    thank you all so much for the info. You are all being really helpful. It would be great to have it confirmed as to whether there is a separate blues room or not as I think we may be bringing quite a crowd from the South West.

    Unfortunately there isn't a seperate Blues room this time.
    Although the DJ's are Marc Forster (one of my favourite DJ's of all time and also one of my bestest friends ) & the lovely Rob Ambridge

    So although no Blues room, I don't think it's gonna make much difference on the music side of things.

    I wouldn't be too sure about that

    Wonder when Marc's set is and how long he has?

    I still have memories of the days of one room freestyles at Daventry and they ain't that great
