    Re: Scottish Champs 2006, The aftermath

    As MissyD said,

    Open:
    1st Simonr & Nicole
    2nd David and Anita (Reading)

    Here's what I remember of the rest of the results, with forum names in brackets (if I know them)...

    Advanced:
    1st Brian (Mr Fitz) & Louise (Aberdeen)
    2nd John & Jackie (London?)

    Intermediate:
    1st Gail (Skippy) (Dundee) &
    2nd

    Showcase:
    1st Phil & Alex Motley (Middlesborough)
    2nd John & Hazel Lusby (Dundee)

    DWAS:
    1st John (Dance Demon) (Edinburgh) & Anita (Reading)
    2nd Simon Rich (London) & Becky (Bristol)

    Reversed Roles:
    1st Bill (Edinburgh) & Avril (Dundee)
    2nd Cathrine (Little Monkey) (Dundee) & Greg (Sheepman) (London)

    Scot's Challenge (Leads blindfold):
    1st Steve (Trampy) (Dundee) & Jamie (Jammy) (Glasgow)

    Sorry to the ones I couldn't remember, and if I missed any categories out. It's late, and I'm dead...

    It was another great competition. Timings were kept to to within a couple of minutes all day. And the dancing was fantastic. Was great to see so many people there, and from all over the UK as well. The Scottish competition just keeps growing every year

    Couple of minor gripes were that I thought some of the music for competing wasn't particularly inspiring - especially a lot of the latin tracks. And I'm not sure that warm-ups were needed before every heat.

    And, over £6,500 was raised for the charity, Debra

    Just to fill in one gap:

    We had a fantastic day, well once we'd stopped competing. It was our first competition and we got knocked out in the first round! After that we really enjoyed watching everyone else competing and we had some fantastic dances.

    Dazzler wa amazing - we danced a couple of months ago in Inverness and he was great then, but he's come on so far in such a short time. I look forward to watching (and hopefully dancing with) him in the future.

    We thought we might have had a chance in the Scotch Challenge when Tramp said he and Jammy had been disqualified, but they weren't and they won - no competition!

    It was great to meet up with old friends too.

    Thank you and well done to everyone who organised such a wonderful day (and all for charity too).

    My partner was called Graeme MacDonald from Newark (Notts)
    Found at Southport last June!!!
    Great dance and so much fun.
    Had a great day and delight to have won.
    Best part of the day was to see such creative and spectacular Show cases.
    Thanks to the whole Scot team.

    Re: Scottish Champs 2006, The aftermath

    First competition I've been to - loved it!

    Hadn't managed to get to dancing for a bit recently but yesterday has inspired me and I'll be making sure I do from now on.

    I had sore legs n hips earlier, which I'll take as I had a good day and night dancing and also that I'm so very unfit.

    Trampy and Mel - loved your show case

    Ooooh, I'm still knackered!

    Well done to everyone!!!

    Can't believe Sheepy and I came second in the role reversal - he's hardly ever danced as a lady before! And during the first heat he couldn't see a thing, due to the wig getting in his eyes, so he was literally blind during the whole track!! But wasn't (s)he stunning in my dress?

    Also thanks to my lovely partner in the DWAS Paul, from Nottingham, who managed to get me through to the semi final, and to pmjd, who I had great fun dancing with in the intermediate.

    Have just posted some snaps from the comp here: http://www.cerocscotland.com/photopo...00&ppuser=1095

    Re: Scottish Champs 2006, The aftermath

    WOW!!!....what a fantastic weekend. From the Friday night party, right through to the Stirling tea dance, I've had a great weekend. So much for retiring from competitions ....Mrs DD and me turned up at the venue just as the DWAS was getting underway, and I was asked if I would dance as they were short of men....Thanks to Angie for talking me in to it, as the lucky dip really was lucky for me this year, because I got to dance with the lovely Anita Stone from Reading. Anita, you are a lovely dancer, and a lovely person, and it was a joy to dance with you......and an even greater joy to win the DWAS..my first competition win. Thank you also for agreeing to donate the prize money to the charity . It was great to catch up with all the people from south of the border, in particular Mr & Mrs Under Par, and the crew from Nottingham.
    The two rooms on the Saturday night worked well, and there was a lovely atmosphere in the blues room...Ventured up to Stirling this afternoon for the tea dance. Great day, and cool choons as always from Tiggerbabe and some fab dances with all the lovely ladies.
    Well done to everyone concerned with running the Scottish competition. the organisation was once again tremendous, and the competition ran pretty much on time all day. well done Scot. Finally a pecial mention for the biggest winners of the day, the DebRA society, who benifited by over £6,000....

    Well done everyone who won things and to those who did all the hard work. I was really sorry to miss it as had to come back back to France. It sounds like it was a fab day and so much raised for charity. Magic !!!
