Held at Church of the Ascension, The Avenue, Wembley from 8pm on Monday 21st May 2012.
Well,
the dance season's nearly over and in case you're short of things to do over the
summer, here are a few suggestions (as well as the ten dances we will be dancing
tonight - can you spot them all?). You
could take a trip to Bavaria or, perhaps, go on a cruise. Given the recent
anniversary of the Titanic, I suggest you do some homework first and ensure you
get a berth on a new rigged ship. For
those of you who prefer to stay in the UK, one option is to drive to Scotland to
take in the scenery from their beautiful winding
roads while I can think of no better place for your final destination
than the famous St Andrews' fairways
for a spot of golf. Or, if
you are on a budget this summer and fancy something a bit more adventurous,
touring Eire by bus is becoming very popular. A one-off payment will allow you
to travel anywhere in the country for free - just ask at the ferry port for an
Irish Rover ticket. If
you intend spending time at home, there is still much to keep you occupied.
There is dancing every Tuesday evening up in town at Pont St, Knightsbridge.
However warm it gets, you can be sure that at St Columbas', strathspeys, reels
and jigs will quickly follow one after another. If you're not sure how to get to
the church I can give you directions and after the dance you can follow me home. There
is, of course, much to do around the home at this time of year. If you need to
spend some time tidying up your borders and flowerbeds then I'd recommend you
start as soon as possible. Getting everything in the ground early will mean that
at the height of summer your backyard will be a gardeners' fantasia for all the
senses - colourful flowers, sweet smelling blooms and the buzzing of bees in the
trees and bushes - marvellous! So pay a visit to the nurseryman and get to work! When
you've got everything shipshape, take some time to relax. Get a garden chair, a
cooling drink and a good book - if you like autobiographies I can recommend the
diaries of the last European Ryder Cup captain who is one of Scotland's best
known golfers. His feisty character really comes across, but don't be put off by
Colin Montgomerie's rants, it really is a great read and the perfect way to
spend a lazy summer's afternoon. However
you choose to spend the break, enjoy it and we'll all be back in September for
another fun-filled season of dancing. |
