    The other thing we do in our "spare" time

    Just in case anyone is interested...

    Ballroom Nationals were held end July. Got a couple of photos from them today.

    Li'lfox and I didn't do as well this year as last but hell, we tried anyway.

    Very elegant and you look nothing like your avatar. Hats off to you.

    Perhaps the single origin coffee has tempered your performance?

    Nice pics. Very stylish !

    Do the names Wally and Gwen Dixon from Hawkes Bay ring any bells ?

    They were friends of the family and right into their ballroom dancing.

    They have both passed now (would be in their 90's - not suggesting you're that old), but you may have heard of them ?

    I have heard their names from time to time - usually in the context of "...do you remember..?"

    Not quite that old but well on the friggin' way...

    Had a bash at ceroc (sp?) once, it was fun and cool but my knees didn't think so, still a different but nice dance style to watch.

    I love the dance. Once upon a time I did a bit of ballroom. Much preferred the latin American though.

    awesome stuff, but I can't see HER face?

    All I can think of is Waltz of the Flowers, had a little 45 rpm single with a story of mice & flowers when I was a little 'un.
