    I'm thinking my zoombar was more inspired by brown ale & H0key K0key than tickilla & Reo laughing-hysterically-smiley-emoticon.gif but--for my first ever attempt--I reckon it wasn't all bad; I managed the breaks when the teecha had to change the backing tracks with decorum & perfect timing!
    A bonus is, you go for 10 lessons & get a little card stamped, & the eleventh lesson is free :money: --only drawback is I'm going to have to find some shorter trousers as I kept treading on mine last night. Not worn them for a while & where I've lost a bit of weight, they are a bit too long for fancy terpsichore when you've not learned the steps yet :D


    I think I'm going back...muvva can't see why I want to pay to exercise when I can do it at home--fair point--but I know I'll try that bit harder to keep going if I have paid to be there, & it's more likely to be a less beneficial workout at home because of the phone ringing, a good bit on the telly, cuddling Pup, drinking tea, etc etc etc...I've got six days to decide...hohum :o
