    Roll on June 2nd - we can do it all again.

    Miss Conduct: an amazing dance @ Twyford opened my mind up to possibilities.


    Yes, my memory of that dance concurs with yours. So memorable that my good friend ZW included the track we danced to on a CD she compiled for my birthday...

    Pity we haven't had the opportunity to repeat the experiece yet - but I can wait. Any chance we'll see you at Southport...?

    Oooh Tough Thread to write I think I may be here all night

    Dan Hudson I could have sworn I knew him from somewhere!! First time I see him he was demoing at Welling with the gorgeous Kristen I had only been dancing 7-8 weeks and they taught a fab class. Dan was very approchable and asked me to dance

    Thewacko Nuts absolutely NUTS. Had me in fits of laughter at Bromley, thought he was a bit weird at first but soon learned he's just NUTS (he's now my landlord)

    A Certain Lady Smoking outside Charlton venue absolutely lovely lovely lady heart of gold.

    Russell Saxby on stage. NICE style

    LilyB and DavidB Championships WOW WOW and WOW again

    Lounge Lizard Camber 2003 (I think) Brought him a beer while he was teaching (he needed it)

    LoryCamber. I watched in Sooo Smooth

    IainLCamber Mikeys class Very cheeky

    Robert Winter Thought Dan had dyed his hair

    Dirty D Very enthusiastic beginner

    WittyBird Camber Smoking outside

    Asif All I can say to first impressions on him is

    Missy DCamber dancing with Ray Wow that girl can move

    Zebra Woman Lovely mover, took a while for me to ask her to dance

    Dee Very quiet (how wrong was I)

    Cruella Very nice and easy to talk to

    well I certainly made a good impression

    Most of the forumites I knew before the forum so they don't really count, however here are a couple who I would NEVER have met had it not been for the forum (might have to make this part one as there are quite a few)

    starting from the top :-

    Franck - da boss - what a dynamic wonderful lovely friendly and generous guy, hope I have made a friend forever

    Sheena da Queen of the pack - a bundly of love, hugs, and a really genuine person - you can't help but to love her, hopefully another friend forever

    Mr. Fitz He introduced himself to me, and I wondered who he was at first - but was so impressed with the wonderful dance from the cool goodlooking guy, I ran over to a fellow forumite to find out who he was

    CJ From the forum I expected the arrogant s@d - but when we eventially met, I was very very pleased to meet this really cool person so much fun to dance with and gives amazing hugs

    Dance Demon Wow !! what can I say, he played music from my heaven and danced exactly on my wave length - what a man - my soulmate - if only he wasn't married (and to a great gal too) and I was about 15 years younger (at least)

    KillingtimeThat was a surprise too, was very confused by some of his post (like wear my clothes etc ) but was pleasantly surprised to meet this young goodlooking, really nice and very friendly chap who is always smiling

    DucasiThe picture in my head was about right, although he is older than he looks - a little shy, but a much much better dancer than I expected and a lovely chap

    GadgetAnother surprise - what a great guy, so different (but in a nice way) and sooooooooo much fun to dance with

    ClaireSHad a photo of what she looked like before we met - but was really surprised how differently she looked in real life, she is a really really pretty girl with a beautiful nature and a lovely personality.

    ----------- got to go out, part 2 coming shortly -----------------

    Re: Forumites - Impact at first sight?

    Part two ....... or should it be

    I am wondering if I should continue this..... I think I possibly have the possibly miss the point as reading my post, it is more like first impressions rather than impact at first sight and anyway it is getting very luvvy

    Before I sign off..... to the author of this thread, who I met long before I even joined the forum....

    We were introduced by my old workmate, who was at the time Gojive's new workmate, thought nice friendly chap, especially for teckie
    needs a lot of lessons and dance practice ........... however, over the years have got to know him better and can confirm his is a lovely dancer and a damn nice chap

    Re: Forumites - Impact at first sight?

    The first forumite to make an impact would have been DavidH (Scooby) - before I even knew of this forum or much of ceroc; while everyone was finding a spot to dance in, doing a semi-circle and stepping back, he had been dancing from when he took the ladies hand.

    BTC Bill and the 'spark' he could (can) generate with partners on the floor was probably the next forumite to make an impact on me.

    (Needless to say that Lorna and Curtain have also had a large influence on me, although in a styling and learning rather than a "dance with" way. Franck and Lisa also fall into this group, as do DavidB and Adam)

    Although not a forumite directly, Marc made a huge impact on my dancing - he was doing stuff I had never seen before, With style.

    James (Jivebrummy) made more of a fashion impact when I first met him.

    Although I can remember meeting lots of other male forumites, I can't recall any that made such a memorable impact on first meeting.

    As to the female forumites.... Initial impact of Lisa (before she was a teacher) {Lovely style}, Rachel {Similar style, but more balletic}, Alex {sexy dancer}. ClaireS {hard to concentrate with those georgeous eyes watching you}, Drathzel {Energetic, fun and confident}, Cheeks {nice blues - just clicked},...
    Anyone I meet at weekenders I am sorry to say are lost in a whurlwind of moments that are jumbled into one fantastic weekend of dancing. We may have met and had a dance where the world stopped and the music carried us through to the other side, but i'm sorry to say that in my head the dance gets attributed to the weekend rather than the person If that was/is you, then more please .

    Other forumites I dance with regularly, so the initial impact is sort of blurred, and I can't say for sure if they made an impact then, but special mention should go to Piglet, Freya and Vonney because they always seem to make an impact whenever I dance with them {I know I've missed a few(hundred) folk, but please don't lynch me }

    shhh, don't tell anyone, but Caro should also be on the 'local' list; besides from being a very nice mover, she is the only one brave enough to attempt to lead me... ... although I'm not sure about the impact that has...

    The Tramp

    From the first time I watched him dance I thought Wow! He was the first person to put me into dips and drops, he always makes sure I get to parties and events and even makes sure I leave my card in the car as I have a tendancy to spend to much on our late night shopping trips! Fantastic person and great friend!!!! Even makes a good cup of coffee!!!!

    Right back at you babe. I looked for you for a dance at the edinburgh party but you weren't there

    Still, I am hoping to make Route66 before I jet back to mainland Europe so hopefully I'll see you there

    Hmm... other forumites that have made a great impact?

    Cheeks (obviously) - great fun to dance with, and a babe
    Drathzel - mini Lisa on the dance floor, has a style/elegance and mischeif
    Franck - what can you say, the man!
    Tiggerbabe - only girl to make me blush on the dancefloor, and to still blush two years later
    Lisa - patience of a saint and grace of a god

    There's plenty of friends I made, both on and off the forum. And they know who they are...
