    Why no ceroc in Wales ?

    Often wondered why there isn't any ceroc yet in Wales.

    Should I set up a franchise network bring them in from the valleys ?

    Why would they need Ceroc? There are some very good LeRoc clubs in South Wales, an independant MJ club in Wrexham and an excellent Blitz club just over the Border in Chester.

    I think there used to be a Ceroc franchise in Cardiff a few years back but it failed. However, you don't need the Ceroc brand name to have a good modern jive club. As someone else has already said, we have two Le Roc clubs in Cardiff, a new one just started up in Newport, and one in Wrexham. Ceroc, Le Roc or whetever else - forget the politics, it's all the same dance. It's just run by different people/companies.

    I go to Planet Le Roc in Cardiff, and we have quite a few people who started off by doing Ceroc in other parts of the UK then moved to South Wales. We have two excellent teachers (Mark and Jackie). Le Roc is also very big in Bristol, which isn't that far if you have transport.

    I can say the LLanfair PG one..quite well I've been told, but as a Cheshire Lad, I have made many trips across the border into Wales, to climb Tryfan, Snowdon (obviously), Barmouth slabs and to do lots of walking.

    Love the place and the people.....

    No where's the sheep you promised me....????

    Apparently, if you get them close to a cliff, they push back harder....

    (That's cliff as in edge of - not Cliff as in Penny...)

    Having lived in Chester for a few years I was awarded honourary resident of Prestatyn status. I think Gordy must be talking South Walian - the sheep are much more nervous down there

    Curiously not in Ireland though, where I have WITNESSED a sheep flying off over a cliff as it didn't push hard enough.

    It was underage though.
