There I was, enjoying a nice yet compact dance with someone at Wicksteed on Sunday. You know the sort of night, lots of people, no dance floor to speak of; a couple of bluesy tracks had just thinned the melee down to plain old murder on the dance floor. So I'd grabbed a woman and approached the only safe space on the floor, lovingly coveting this little circle of parquet. So in homage to the space I had acquired I began to do my stuff with this woman. We were doing very nicely Thank You Very Much! and were easily half way through the track when someone and his victim walked onto the spacious, (nah wrong word) crowded, (nah still doesn't convey enough) FULL TO SODDIN OVERFLOWING (yeah that's better), dance floor. Ok Ok it happens I know, so I just cringe at my partner as I know I am going to have to give room to allow this idiot half a dance to ruin what was up till then a perfectly fine dance for us. Well it got worse, not only had he limited me to doing close safe moves while he did walk arounds, reducing my space even more, he sent his victim out backwards into me!
Well that was it as I turned around I did my wilting Death Glare on him and blow me if it didn't work. He just completely failed to curl up on the floor in total agony. No one else did either so I know I didn't miss!
Maybe the batteries are dead?
Maybe he had Death Glare invulnerable Thick Skin?
Either I'm going to have to get the Death Glare checked out or find some venues where etiquette counts for something more that a chance to run rough shod over your fellow dancers.
