Life getting interesting

Our class turnouts continue to be good despite the heat and 'distractions' from outside events. On Monday we had an almost  completely different group from the previous week but still managed to get a full set up to practice a very varied selection of dances. The weather is continuing to be scorchingly hot so having the AC back on line was vital to the class - and even with it pumping out full blast it was still a tad warm for doing anything that demanded too much brain work. Tuesday evening was equally hot and we weren't surprised when only a few people had arrived by 6 pm -especially since there was a huge fire raging in the hills above Paphos - however people kept on coming and yet again we danced many of the dances with 2 sets up. Sadly this was the last night that we will see our wonderful bar ladies smiling across the bar at us. They had been with us since we started dancing at the Phoenix Club, but with one heading home the other has called it a day as well. They had very kindly brought in cake for us all which we enjoyed during our mid-dance break and we presented a card and chocolates from the group, as well as some Cyprus Delight. We will miss them both very much but we live in hope they'll be back - maybe to enjoy the dancing as dancers rather than onlookers? We've only 2 and a bit weeks to go before the June Jamboree signals the end of our Spring dance season, it seems to be approaching incredibly fast - make sure you've got your tickets - there's plenty of room for everybody but there will be a cut off prior to the event so that we can let the Elea know how many to cater for. See you soon I hope...
