Well here we are in 2026, a little bit fatter, a little bit slower and a little less fit and hopefully keen to get back to dancing - to remedy all that, while having a lot of fun on the way.
It is actually hard to grasp that the Monday class restarts tomorrow (and of course the Tuesday class the day after that). Even though we had several weeks of low numbers, and even cancelled classes before Christmas, it still seems amazing that we are back already. I have plenty of ideas for this year's classes though and I know people are looking forward to them so it'll be great to get going again. First:- don't forget our Burn's Night is less than 2 weeks away (note to self - don't panic!) so we need you to get, or at least reserve, your tickets this week please (- the cooks need time to catch the Haggis); if you aren't a Scot you might assume that this isn't the event for you, but it's a great occasion whatever your nationality - you certainly should do it at least once in your life, and don't worry you aren't expected to do anything other than eat and be quiet! Burns' Night (we are well aware that the 'proper' date is 25th January - but you'll find there are events held practically every day for weeks before & after, and we decided to get in early) is celebrated all over the world and not just in Scotland - there are many variations on the theme - after all they've been held for 225 years and things do change. As a Scottish Group we try and keep to a more traditional format - though including the ladies in 'person' rather than just in 'mind'. And because we ladies will be there, there'll also be the opportunity to dance at the end, if people wish to do so. See Pete for tickets at either of the classes, or contact me to reserve your tickets - my details are on the website contact page or check out the poster. We'd appreciate your meal choices when you book, and you can find them on our Future Events page. Who says January is a slow month? Hah! - I look forward to seeing you soon.
