And Well Done Those Dancers too!

Things happen, and in our particular world they seem to happen on Tuesdays. Every week there's one or two people who are unable to make the highlight of their week (I like to think)  because of unfortunate (or otherwise) events outside of their control. This week was a week when so many people had a 'Tuesday event' that our class numbers were less than half the week before. The bar staff were in grave danger of being required to join a set, but in the end, with a slight change of the programme and the inclusion of some 3 couple dances - to give dancers an occasional rest - we managed an excellent night of dancing without having to entice them out. One bonus for the evening was meeting the wonderful Blossom, who despite her health issues accompanied her Mum and Dad to the class and showed a lot of intelligent interest in the proceedings. Unfortunately she didn't arrive in time to see us all enjoy our Trip to Bavaria- a long time since we've visited this particular dance and getting it practically perfect first time through is an achievement we should be proud of - especially our less experienced dancers.  Another dance we possibly haven't done for nearly a decade is the lovely 'Sugar Candie', - it wasn't on the programme but was an excellent 'request from the floor' and will definitely be kept on for next week.
