    Morning hon!!! i neither have found you aloof nor shy nor moody nor anything else bad. you seem to be a lovely person and one whos very motivated and considerate of others.
    I love the idea of dance classes.. always fancied myself as a bit of a lilia kopylova or whatever her name off SCD is!!! intrigued as to the library poster, think i may have missed that bit.
    I'll send you a pm later, but desperately trying to juggle finances and see if it's possible... Hugs. xxx

    Aww thankyou hun. Poster in library was advertising a place that does salsacise and yoga classes - I "memorised" their website, and then forgot it by the time I got home!! :o Never really fancied ballroom, although I wouldn't mind shimmying about in some of the costumes :D

    Just let me know - I understand what it's like with the finances obviously! Can always reorganise for another time if need be xx

    Red.

    I salsa (not quiet Strictly standard, but met Vincent and Flavis recently!) and it is so much fun and very sexy!!! (oh good exercise to)

    definiately worth giving a go and it's also a great way to meet people. Not sure where you are, but if you want I can post a list of some Salsa website, I am sure there are some good UK ones.

    Ooh yes please! I've tried a class or two ages ago and did enjoy it. How long have you been doing it for?

    This is in Derbyshire, but I'm sure they have links:

    http://www.absolutesalsa.co.uk/

    They have a link there to Salsa York, but I can't seem to open it.

    And this is a general UK site, which will again probably have links.

    http://www.salsauk.com/

    And this lot are Sheffield/South Yorks based

    http://www.mambocollective.co.uk/

    I hope they are helpful!

    Thanks Lucy, I'll have a look through them later.

    Have finished job application that's due in Friday and sent that off - just seen another one which is due Friday as well, so will need to get on with that, thank goodness for online applications!

  • Hi, how are you today? I like salsa, but on an observational level, rather than participatory. Mr.B has two left feet, so haven't had a good dance for ages. so classes sound great.
    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
