If you could only go to one weekender - which would it be?
Have been toying with the idea of going on a weekender, but am finding it difficult to:
1. Book as a female with the whole gender thing
2. Find someone to have my two kids (not quite the spawn of satan, but closely related!)
It looks like I may be able to go but only to one, so am asking weekender regulars -
If you could only go to one, which would it be?
This would probably be easier as a poll, but I haven't a clue how to start that up or what the options would be.
Hope this hasn't been done before, did a search - but couldn't find it.
HELP
Got the hang of the smiley thing though.
If you like the idea of smaller numbers, top quality dancing and being able to find the people you want to dance with - Big Forum Gathering (please please organise one for later next year Franck!)
If bigger is better, then no contest - gotta be Southport! - June is supposedly better than September but I've only been to one of each and had a good time at both - weather is better in June tho', obviously...
That's so nice to hear - so thanks for that LMC, I like the BFG lots too!Originally Posted by LMC
Great thread Daisy Fox!
Judging by what everyone is saying I would say Southport June! Have never been but wont miss out EVER again.
If not Southport, I would say Jivetime Camber in May
I can highly recommend the Aberdeen Beach Ballroom weekends too! Especially if there's a teacher booked that you really want to have a lesson with. The Ballroom is such a lovely venue - no other rooms set up for dancing, but usually the music is good with a mix of everything.
Southport June sounds like a plan for next year definitely, and enough time to find a man to book up with.
Cheers
Southport or Scarborough
If you book in good time you won't need to find a man - you'll be able to book on your own or with other girls
Please note a booking form is now available for Southport Feb 2007 now for you forum ladies to get in and book early before the gender balance kicks in.If you book in good time you won't need to find a man - you'll be able to book on your own or with other girls

Whose planning to go to Southport 2nd - 5th February 2007
If you'd prefer a more intimate and chilled weekender, based in a hotel, try Rock Bottoms.
Great advice, thank you Northants Girly. Looking forward to it already.If you book in good time you won't need to find a man - you'll be able to book on your own or with other girls

First time for Southport for me and I am absolutely hooked - best weekender I have been on and am definitely, definitely going next June.
Why limit it to a weekender? If you did Beach Boogie you can take the children too, then leave them in the capable hands of the team who will keep them entertained for most of hte week, while you do your own thing.
And if you fancy trying WCS, but are too far away from any regular classes, then this year it has to be your best opportunity to get top instruction and get fully immersed in the dance.
Hmm, why is it I'm not going this year?
Must look into that, was tempted by the whole getting away from the kids thing, but Beach Boogie sounds Good.Why limit it to a weekender?

Although is there really any point if you're not going !!
it has to be southport ive been to the last 3 and they just get better and better the atmosphere is fantastic and everybody there loves to dance you wouldnt be dissapointed.
Probably Jumping at the Woodside, just because it's so convenient for me. Ignoring location, probably a Rock Bottoms weekender. I like my luxuries, so hotels beat out hi-de-hi events.

Although I really liked Southport , I am someone who really likes her comfort- I don't go for the 'Prisoner Cell Block H' cardboard walled type chalets - so it would have to be the luxury 4* hotel weekender for me !!
So if I could only choose one weekender it would be the Dance Fever weekenders for me - added bonus not having to travel too far.

Southport for me.
(I don't mind the accomodation, I don't spend that much time in it anyway). Perhaps the fact that Southport was my first weekender and I've now been to 5, each one successively better in some way, has something to do with it!
Ditto - almost
Only been to three southports, but have loved every one. Went to one camber and vowed never would I set foot in such poor accomodation again (5* all the way darlings), but for the experience that is southport I'd put up with anything !!
