A fun afternoon in Hullavington. Well done to everyone for joining in on the Yee-Haws! You guys did brilliantly and we got through lots of great dances.
Again lots of PSA’s this evening hence the slightly earlier start. You all danced so well we managed to sneak in another dance and also test my new softwares ability to speed up the tracks a little.
Don’t forget that at this Saturdays Festival of Lights the Calne Food Bank will have a stall upstairs in the town hall, be sure to pay them a visit (they might have cake!)
Also Tricia will be back next week with the Dorothy House Raffle Tickets for their Christmas Draw (which are always amazing) so bring some cash if you want to buy some.
Lots of you at class this evening which is always lovely to see. No improvers session this evening as most of us were off to the class dinner that was so kindly organised by Sarah Sexton. Thanks Sarah it was lovely!
Tonight you danced
Take Forever Bigger Houses Until the Dawn Hayya Hayya Wings to Fly Hoedown A Hero AB Love Potion 666 Liar Footloose
Yes I may have played with the speed of the track on a couple of dances, I was just testing my new software!
Thanks again to Sarah for organising a fantastic meal, and the little goodie bags as well. If it wasn’t for Sarah there would not have been a class meal as she takes all the strain of organising it.
Don’t forget that next week is the last class of the year. We’re encouraging you to put a little festive spirit into your outfits, no need to go full Christmas Tree, I have some new jumpers to try out! We’ll be dancing to Christmas Tunes and there will even be mince pies. We’re looking forward to it, and we hope you are too.
Tonights PSA’s were

Thank you to everyone this evening who braved the wet and windy weather to make it up the hill. I think we got you all warmed up sufficiently, especially with the last dance.

Another great evening, lots of energy and laughing in the room which is always great.
Calne food bank have put out a call for Christmas ‘treat’ donations. It’s a tough time of year and expensive. For those relying on a food bank, treats are few and far between so a treat donation for Christmas can make a huge difference.
No perishable items would be for the best but if you are able, think about the treats that maybe you like at Christmas?
Lots of collection points around Calne or alternatively you can bring them to class and give them to Jo (not me, too tempting) and she will make sure they go where they need to go.
