Finchley

[Robin]

Hee - I think this should be fun - combination shave-and-dance evening.

Go on Robin, you know you want to... I'll supervise the clipping, I've (alas) had more experience of short haircuts than ESG.

So, 9pm, on the stage, that OK for you?

I'm sorry, but there's a strict entrance exam. And I do have some standards, you know.

Mr. Long. Mr. Long. What's with all this Mr. Long from D & D (I wrote double-Ds but thought better of it) of Norf Finchley. You have made a happy man feel very old.

Yours sir,

Mr. Long KCGT and bar.

[El Salsero Gringo]

Mr. Long KCGT and bar.

Is that "Knight Commander of the Gin and Tonic, and (lounge) bar"?

[Lory]

your partner did look rather .... well its one of those rare times when you're sort of lost for words .... probably would about wrap it up!

OH DON'T!!

I hope I made up for it after?

I did appologise, roughly about 1000 times!

[Robin]

'twas quite funny though - he looked very bewildered!

Mebe we'll get a repeat on Saturday - ie the 3 tenors and you yanking a partner over - must remember the video camera

It was my sister Dee that calls you Mr Long! I refer to you as "The Long One"

Ok sorry how about if we keep it to the Long one instead sounds mighty better dont you think??

[David Bailey]

sounds mighty better dont you think??

Better than Mr "Spin? You want me to spin? That's the lead for a spin? Oh, OK then"...

[Tessalicious]

Better than Mr "Spin? You want me to spin? That's the lead for a spin? Oh, OK then"...

I did my best to train him for you in advance, but it takes a better man than me to lead the Longmeister... I thought it was just because he's one of those men who can't take orders from a woman, but I don't know where that puts you, DJ?

Oh good, I'm more manly than Tessalicious. Tough one that

Clive was actually pretty good, I've danced with a lot worse. Hell, I danced with a lot worse that evening...

[Robin]

Oh good, I'm more manly than Tessalicious. Tough one that

welll..... its got to be said .. she leads more in the class on Mondays than you do ! ... unless it all goes horribly wrong in which case its all totally your lead !!

[LMC]

That would have been me I believe...

[Dizzy]

That would have been me I believe...

............or me!!

[David Bailey]

............or me!!

Good God, no - none of the wonderful forumtettes, naturally.

But there's a whole "light on your feet" thing any MJ dancer gets after a while, and if you give a clear strong lead to someone who provides a connection, it's surprisingly easy to lead anyone - at least, it was surprising to me.

We weren't great, but we weren't (IMO) totally crap either.

welll..... its got to be said .. she leads more in the class on Mondays than you do !

So, that's Number 1 clippers for Robin, then...

[LMC]

Good God, no - none of the wonderful forumtettes, naturally.

Thank you for the noble response to transparent fishing for compliments

yeah yeah yeah, it's on its way already....

EDIT: well, it would be if I didn't have to spread it around a bit more first. Like the signature change BTW

[David Bailey]

Like the signature change BTW

Then you should rep me for it...

[LMC]

Then you should rep me for it...

Pay attention Mr Bond

I have to spread it around a bit more first - you just shouldn't be such a wit
