Has anyone ever tried "Jive Party" at the Rivoli Ballroom, Lewisham?
They have the Alley Cats on Saturday night and the venue itself looks to be in the same league as Ashtons was.
We need a "Harper Link" to the thread Twirly was on - lots of info on there about the Rivioli (it's my fave venue)
Fab venue, great floor, they used this venue for the Strictly dancers the floor is so good - it is one of those places everyone should go to (at least once) BUT............ parking is rubbish, street parking in 'not the best' part of South London

Anyway - you have heard of me before. Proof is here.

If car is fixed dancing at Brighouse 21st [any forumites going ??] and Tango in Manchester 22nd
if you love the life you live then you'll get a lot more done
Derby UTOPIA Friday for Judith and me.
Possibly Oxford JivePlus on Saturday night.
I'm going to the Rivoli on Saturday, hopefully see some of you there, before I go out of circulation for a while?...
I've just decided to go to Funky Bloo Munky. For some reason I thought Chorleywood was somewhere else - durrrrr!
I think I've persuaded Simon and Nicole to come too. PaulF, I hope you're going, or you're in big trouble - no reason, just haven't had dance with you in ages.
Better think about getting ready then.

URGENT NEWS
I've just had a call from Trampy, he's arrived at the Northern hotel, to find that the venue's been double booked.
If you know anyone who planned to go there tonight, please text or ring them to let them know!

Stockport Town Hall
Was pleasantly surprised by some of the music. Not heard Jatinder DJ before (known him as a teacher for some years). His latin set would have gone down very well in the Southport Latin room. I think that John & Wes would do well to book him for Southport. Was really nice to see some faces I've not seen for some time ... including some new 'kids on the block' and the likes of (Lovely) Roy, Bruce et al.
Was less pleasantly surprised by the number of fcukwits who did drops and/or danced through other dancers with no regard.
Eventually mamaged to get myself organised enough to post....
I had a fab chilled weekend in Manchester with a quiet but lovely night on Friday in Hyde big thanks to Stuart, Gus etc for all my fab dances. I then ventured to Stockport Town Hall on Saturday....... A fab night of dancing was had with a fab set being played
A huge thankyou to all the lovely leads especially Gorgeous Gus, 'The' Lovely Roy , Chris T(I promise I will do some WCS before I come back lol),The fab Keith D, Steve J, Keith L, and so many more.........
All in all a really good night was a shame the night had few negative's
1,Kevin who I heard so much about refused me a dance on the grounds of back injuries mm.............didn't really stop him dancing with others mind you oh and Kevin if you read this as a therapist I'd recommend sitting straight in your seat with no weight on your knees lol
2, One of the males at venue with very little dance experience at some point had obvious attended a dips and drops workshop(or stood in the room but didn't listen) and felt he could show a few of the newer dancers how to do them (or should I say how not to). Outcome was I have chipped bone in foot and lots of bruising...I ended up complaining to organiser as unfortunately couldn't bite my tongue on that one as was huge Health and Safety risk to all.
Didn't let it ruin the good mood of the night or my chilled weekend though!
Huge hugs to my everyone who made my visit a Great one.....and will be back soon!
