    The programme for Blush should be up in 2-3 weeks so that you can see what's on offer. Might help in making an informed decision.

    Please don't under estimate the help you have already given everyone to help them make up their mind.

    Talking about weekenders in the winter, it is fair to ask for the WCS dance festival in Paris to be added to the poll ? It's a weekender and in the winter (jan 9-11)

    I'll be going. And to Eclipse too.

    Ahhh... That's the sort of nice positive comment that makes the Forum such a warm and welcoming place.

    I'm all teared up now. See?

    It's fair to ask, certainly.

    I have booked on Eclipse.

    Although I have nothing against Ceroc at all (well, maybe a little after what happened) I just cannot believe they would be able to recreate the same vibe.

    I suppose I could keep second guessing myself to the contrary but, out of a sense of loyalty to an event, I had to book Eclipse.

    Hmmmm... If I were crazy enough to go Up North in the middle of Winter, I think I'd probably choose Blush.

    But as I'm not that crazy, I won't.

    Good Lord what is it with you and Rocky (who didn't like the post). All we have to do is look at the threads concerning the forthcoming Blush event (Mike Ellards statement on blush and subsequent posts and the Blush Southport suggestions threads) and Rocky has already expounded the vision for the new Blush event (build on what was good at Southport with the addition of sucessful aspects from other Ceroc weekenders).

    It is not like we have to have an actual timetable with assigned teachers to be able to get an inkling of what is likely to be there. We are not completely in the dark about waht Cerocs vision for Blush is.

    At the moment we don't know that much in detail about the JA event in Skegness except that the WCS pros will be Kyle Redd and Sarah Vann Drake (if my memory serves me).

    The dates of the two events don't clash so as long as money, holiday time for travelling and sheer energy permit then there is no reason why people can't go to both.

    In any case each event is far from getting full so there really isn't any need to rush to get the last tickets.

    Let's get this straight. I have no loyalty to any organisation or organiser. As long as they provide what I want then we will have a transaction of cash for services - end of deal.

    Of course, if I happen to like the personality of the organiser as well then that is a bonus and may have some influence when it comes to making borderline decisions.

    OK, OK, sorry, I misinterpreted your remark. I'm in a funny mood at the moment, it's probably hormonal.

    Well, I have to admit that Blush is looking tempting... with most female forumites going to Eclipse, I stand more of a chance of getting a few dances with Franck

    This is a bit embarrassing but I think I'm going to Blush

    See what I did there?


    I mean.. if ANYONE goes to blush it should be me. I mean it's my one defining feature other than my excessive geekiness. heck I'm even blushing thinking about blushing. Should change my forum name to Pete the Geek with the Themonuclear cheeks!
