    The morning after.....well Nargle and kerri,I imagine you're feeling a tad fragile this morning.Soooo,Hubert came in first,despite only coasting on three out of four roller skates.That's some feat!He subbed in a sparkly high-heeled number?That explains it!

    Igor crashed out after knocking back too many Roman cocktails,wow,that's a first!I heard that he went off in a strop when the pantomime horse's back legs mysteriously disappeared,thus scuppering his plans on [STRIKE]world domination[STRIKE][/STRIKE][/STRIKE],no,sorry,winning the race....Shall I do us all some breakfast?Scrambled eggs,toast,muesli,yogurt and coffee-how does that sound?Who needs some Paracetamol?

    Bacon roll and a cuppa for me please marmite head ok this morning, you see that slightly dead looking palm, I might have watered it with some of those cocktails Igor was dishing out last night....I learned my lesson about his super strength dancing juice before :rotfl:
    Pretty impressive stuff,all the same!

    How long have you been doing it?

    Thanks, just over 6yrs now .....wow can't believe it's that long. Only get to practise in class once a week though, used to have a pole at home but sold it not long after we moved. Considering getting another (they've chanted the design of how to put them up so it should be quicker now) but not sure I can justify the cost.

    One bacon butty and cuppa coming up!

    That begs the question-how much do they cost?

    Nargle I've heard on good authority that the back legs of the panto horse were none other than....Russell Crowe!

    So that explains the You Tube video that's going round at the moment...showing a pantomime horse prancing on the dance floor then splitting in two to reveal Igor and Russ-baby doing a hoe down to the Good Ole Boys' latest dance hit Dos-y-Dos like a Big Fat Ho!

    Not surprising those nice chaps in the big van with the blue flashing lights turned up again....and they even had the good manners to dress up as Roman Centurions......I suppose everyone had a whip round to bail kerri out again? She really must tone down the pole dance act.....
    My head is totally in the shed....too much pomegranate wine....

    Friday was a spendy day as I needed some new shoes for work and birthday goodies for my dad. I also bought picnic stuff for a trip to the seaside. Yesterday I'd allowed myself a tenner spending money at Scarborough but only spent £4.50 so that's NSD #4 today I'm not hitting any shops so will be NSD #5 :) that's half way to target!
    NSDs January - 3/8 2017 total - 3

    You're looking at £200-£230 for a new one that can be put on static of spinning modes. Some do come up cheaper second hand, you just have to be confident in what you're buying. Lots of people to buy them when they start learning, then the novelty wears off and they get sold on.

    It wasn't my fault, I was in character, I wasn't really going to do that to Russell while spinning with a sword :o
