It's almost 2 weeks with no time to blether - although there's been a fair amount to blether about. There's been highs - the visit to our Monday beginner's class by 6 ladies from Lithuania went off really well. Lithuania must be a nation of dancers because, with very little instruction (since their English was minimal), they all danced half a dozen simple, but varied dances - including 2 strathspeys- with excellent footwork and timing. Thanks have to go to those of our regular dancers who turned out to help - it was a really fun afternoon; it could have been a bit of struggle for all of us but instead, with enough hands on deck, and the excellent attitude of our visitors it was a really great experience for all of us. We've also welcomed back other visitors giving us good numbers at class and the ball dance programme is gradually coming together with dancers voting for the ones they most enjoy - a new strategy but it's working well.
There have been lows too - various serious health issues for several of our class members - though all are, hopefully, improving and it's lovely that the members of both classes are all so concerned and supportive. We send our best wishes to all of you. It's exactly one month to go before the Ball. Tickets are now on sale at the classes, or contact Irene (details are on the Website Contact page). It's going to another super night so don't miss it.
