    Any Dances around Skegness?

    We are going up to see family in Skegness over the weekend and was wondering if there is any dancing on in that area?

    Anyone know?

    Pop down into Norwich (see Ceroc Fusion). Sadly I won't be there to welcome you with open arms, but I am sure many ladies will in my stead!!!

    Ah, sweetie, when it's 3 hours to London - or 6 to Southport, an hour to Skegness is literally on your doorstep

    OK, so I exaggerated by 15-20 mins. Big deal! As previously mentioned, when talking about drive to London, it is practically on your doorstep... And if Lee wants to have some decent dances whilst there, it is up to him to decide, whether it's worth the drive ;-)

    Still pretty good going, especially on country roads - what car do you drive ?

    The roads up there are pretty cr@ppy. Not awful, but not ideal for non locals.

    For people going up in Feb, Ingoldmells market is worth a look, but Skegness itself is bit of a pit.
