    Nope - I was hoping it would disguise my candicacy for the "December's most awful segue" award, with the following "talking of atmosphere" link.

    Just to let you know Andy that the whole of downstairs was non-smoking on the 27th and from 2005 the only place you'll be able to smoke is by the bar. There is no smoking down either side of the dance floor.

    Just to say thankyou Chris for your help at the ball, you were a very good handerouter and it was nice to see you at Ashton's.

    And as for the Pole - wasn't it fabulous - many thanks to Laurence for making it (took him 5 hrs to construct that morning!) It is safely hidden away now for next time when the Pole dancing competition will be made more public, now we know fab it is. And I hope more people will be tempted to have a go? Andy - I can see you on the pole - it wasn't just for the girls!

    What a fab night. I enjoyed all of the music, there were no Bob-errations. Really liked Pearl's a singer for WCS.
    I was a little frustrated waiting until 9.30 for the dance music to start, I was more than ready by 9.00 (is it just me???).
    After returning from almost two weeks off the computer, I could not have come back to a more appreciative message.

    THANK YOU all for your kind messages, but I can tell you that it is YOUR comments, and continued questioning of my musical tastes that makes for a better evening all round.

    PLEASE keep the comments coming, good or bad.

    So far as the 9.30 thing is concerned, like M'Lord said to me on the night, "It needs thinking about, but it works". It give us time to talk before being overtaken for the need to dance.
    It also means we can savour the "dress" code for a while before having to remove the damp stuff ! ! !
    I don't know which was more fraustrating... YOU waiting for the dancing to start, or ME trying to find something for you NOT to dance to ! ! !

    I don't know if Ian is on the Forum (yet), but if not, I know he will also appreciate the above.

    As for the smoking thing, Linda has mentioned that as from NOW, there will be NO smoking around the dance floor area, only in the bar area as the balcony in not normally open on a wednesday night, so that will help a load.

    I personally thought the whole evening ran like clockwork, and the use of the upstairs as the rest and refreshment area meant that the dancefloor was never too packed.
    Maybe this will be adopted for the freestyle nights, who knows ?

    Lets make for a much better 2005, and hope you ALL support the Ashtons Tea Dance on 30th January. Keep your eyes open for that one.

    I have to admit, when I first arrived, I thought something had happened and I had to ask a couple of people, what was wrong, why's everyone standing around chatting and no-one on the dance floor But after the initial concern, I liked the idea and thought it added a real sence of occasion

    And I agree, it was lovely to be able savour the sight of all the men dressed in their dinner jackets for a while

    I hope you realise that dressing identically is just the proof of what you already know, - that all men are the same!

    Re: Ashtons

    Just a quick reminder that Ashtons is CLOSED this Wednesday due to Roshashona (the Jewish holiday) falling on this day.

    It's opening on Tuesday the 11th instead!

    Err, Yom Kippur, I believe? But close...

    Oh, and where's the "I told you so" icon so I can use it for Tiggstours based on a recent conversation about this?

    Again, I come upon this mysterious phrase "too much Latin"...

    Is the meaning of this something like "Too much sex", then? That is, you don't want to overdo it for health reasons or something?

    TOO MUCH SEX ! ! !

    Never heard anything so silly

    Basically if we are asked for too much Latin, sorry a lot of Latin, then it doesn't leave enough time for all the other forms of music that many others like so much.

    So, requests please, on PM or email if you know it.

    See you there
