Congratulations everyone!
Well done in particular to Aurion & Little Black Dress, Tiger Pants & Peaches, and Brian! Special for other friends/forumites taking part - hopefully you've all had a fantastic time and raised loads of cash for a worthy cause. Wish I could've been there to cheer you on but fingers crossed I'll see you for a dance tomorrow.
Brilliant day, thanks to Sheena, Franck and all their little helpers. Congratulations to everyone who took part and to all the winners, you made it a great day. Big thanks to my lucky dip partner Malcolm and my 45+ Alex, can't quite believe we did it and the nerves didn't get to me.
Anyone got video or pictures they'd like to share?
Congratulations
to all the winners and all who took part.
Biggest congrats to Jamie Moore (Fility Monkey) and Nadia Majid.
A great day, thanks to both my partners - the lovely Firefly in the Lucky Dip and the lovely Von in the Advanced. As usual I danced simply and nervously in competition and danced much better when the pressure was off when it was all over and i was out of costume.
I've raised about £300 (with hopefully more to come) in sponsorship and an extra £107.61 (as Franck said, who gave the 61 ? ) on the day by selling artificial flowers via the lovely flower fairies.
ignore him , he was even worse then he suggests. And so was the costume
(anyone not figure it out )
great to finally dance with TigerPants
Congrats to everyone!
Wish I could have been there but had commitments that kept me down here...
Was a great day, a fab atmosphere and fab having kids there.. made it very relaxed.
Well done to Flower Man. It's never too late to add to his total... his costume was worth every penny of sponsorship!!
Congratulations to all the winners.
FM - you missed a catergory
Showcase - Anita & David
Thanks to Sheena and Franck - a well run day - ontime the whole way. The atmosphere was lovely and relaxed - real family day!! Congrats to Mr Flowerman - absolute respect for dancing in your costume all day!!!!
Congratulations to all the winners!!!
Thanks Yli, I've now added it to FM's post.

I had a fabulous time at my first Champs, thanks to everyone involved
I've posted some photos!
I think a special mention go to CJ and Yliander's AWESOME spotlight performance. Though it didn't win yesterday its on the most innovative, emotive and powerful I've seen in this category for a long time.
After the 'gimp' routine, I was ready for something a little less ..... well, you know. After seeing the new routine I was blown away. HUGE respect to the pair of you ... look forward to seeing it again
To anyone who stayed away, for whatever reason, you missed a great day and a very well-run competition and event (except when Franck proved himself NOT to be a Duracell Bunny by running out of batteries!). I recommend that as soon as the date is announced for 2009 you get it in your diaries.
Congrats and thanks to Franck, Sheena and the legion of behind-the-scene workers who got everything done on time.
And on a personal note, thanks to the A-M-A-Z-I-N-G Lorna who got me so far in the Lucky Dip competition (I did lead her occasionally, you know!!)
OK … as much as I hate the lovely dovey cr@p, a few special mentions to a few people I’m proud to call friends.
Nik – fantastic outfit (Flower Man). Still had me laughing at the end of the day. Great idea and well done to you and your clan for raising so much money. ALSO, respect for coming out of retirement and dancing so well. Some great moments on the video. A nicer chap one couldn’t hope to meet.
Von – despite her nerves, she was GREAT. Never looked out of place in the Advanced category, had a smile that lit the room, and a wiggle to keep ones attention.
Ali & Brian – apologies to the couple that won, but the view of our (partisan) crowd was that you guys aced the Advanced category. Superb interpretation and dance movement. A real pleasure to watch.
Pauline - …The video shows just how well you did with the handicap that was your partner. Great dancing, great fun to dance with.
Dance Demon – despite all the reasons not to be there, it was great to see you support the Charity and to given many lasses some wonderful dances.
Last, but not least .. a few people e who I’m just getting to know, and would like to get to know better
Brian and Louise Fitzpatrick – as well as being great dancers they make even better chauffeurs/taxi drivers
Phill Webb – as always, ever eager to chat, pass on his knowledge, dazzle on the dance floor …. But we still NEED to know, what did he do to become the ‘Special Guest’ at the hotel???
well done to sheena and frank, and all their helpers! a great day. thought it was a very relaxed and warm (ahem!...) atmosphere!
the little flower girls were so cute. flower man wasn't bad either!
well done also to all the winners but especially all those frae bonny dundee!
(an perth...) petal and diamond geezer....at last! you deserved it.
john and lorna. i know you didn't win the lucky dip but i thought you were great to watch!X
good to see old faces and new.
