    Yes, it was quite hot at Daventry wasn't it. Perhaps we should have danced nearer a fan

    I meant the dancers not the dance. What is the correct terminology?

    Anyway, as a proud Snoot, I can safely say, it suits me just fine!

    And I also get to do, that even Snootier dance, Tango, when I'm there too!

    Never been to Berko (well technically I have because I used to have a friend there and have slept nights there), was just going by DB's description. Plus Rachel and Marc DJ at Chiswick occasionally.

    Admitedly it's not he same. Not much sleaze at Chiswick I agree.

    Re: First time at Berko

    Well I loved Berko. It was intimate. The music was awesome and what cracking dancers although DB managed to avoid me all night.

    Seriously we only had 50 minutes due to the traffic and it passed in a blink of an eye. I would really love to go again and I really wish there was something like that closer to home.

    Berko is not at all intimidating even though there are some awesome dancers there. It was wonderful to see Scarface dancing dance after dance with a great big smile on his face.

    Thanks Trouble for taking my cherry. And Ant - why didn't we meet?

    Re: First time at Berko

    We had quite a little Milonga going on last night

    Well, its a bit more like a 'self-help' group really but its fun and definitely doesn't have the scary Tango vibe

    Well apart from David of course!

    I loved it, it was so helpful and I managed a 'planeo' - albeit in the middle of the bar and on carpet...OWZAT . Once again thank you Ant and DB for your patience

    Hey, it wasn't just any planeo, it was a M&S planeo... well, a "Puddytat special", actually, otherwise known as the "Oh-my-God-I-can't-stand-back-up-help" move
