Sooo, for all my encouraging others, I missed most of it. Son came around with his gel, her flat had rain coming into it. So we had to go and help out!

I saw that both Fern and Victoria 'lost their way' with their footwork, and that was as far as I got!

Nevermind, I can catch up on i-player, and then look forward to tonight.

Poor Victoria ... at least she carried on to the end and didn't run off the floor.

Michael Vaugha was better than I expected him to be, mind you, that isn't saying much.

Only six couples tonight (Friday) so there will be eight tomorrow.
Will be watching again, really looking forward to it.

Just trying to get my hair up into a topknot. Loads of lacquer then a few spangles to bring out the highlights. Aaaah lovely, dont look bad even though I say so myself! :-D

In the newspaper this morning, there was a small precis on all the contestants, apparently JH has been throwing a strop, and expecting special treatment..

Brings on the gladiators. :-D :-D

Only an hour to go, best foot forward.
<3

I'll be there wouldn't miss it :-D
Johnny Ball was interviewed this morning with 32-year-old Iveta Lukosiute,who will replace Aliona who has fractured her ankle,( although Johnny said she hadn't she had just hurt it :-S )

Soo tonight 9.00..... Cha Cha Cha :-D

Ciao :-D

Am I the ONLY one getting ready for tonight?

I applied my fake tan last night, so this morning I look and smell like a ginger nut biscuit.

Never mind, when I do the fandango you will never notice.

:-D :-D

Just a reminder [with the CORRECT date this time!]

Strictly is on tomorrow evening.

First of the contestants to dance with their partners, and then on Saturday, the second crowd with their partners.

Just finished my dress, over 10,00 crystals have been sewn on with loving care.

Got my silver dancing shoes lightly scuffed underneath so I dont fall on me btm.

I am ready to go.....................See you on the dancefloor tomorrow.


One, two, cha cha cha. One, two, cha cha cha!!

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Gooooood Morning Julia.

I've picked up the clanger I dropped last night! lol

Stop Press. Johnny Ball and his partner may not take part in the first few shows. They were practicing a few moves, and poor Alliona fractured a bone in her foot, and is now on crutches. They are looking for a new partner for Johnny for the first shows.

Bring back Karen for him!!


:-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Good job Ann reminded us, and I doubled checked in the Radio Times. I'd have been sat with me frock on for a week, getting ready to start. Would have had to do me gardening and housework all dressed up and nowhere to go. Could even have been take to A & E as per normal. That would have given them something to talk about, wouldn't it.

PS Good Morning to Everyone

Blushes....................you are quite right Ann.

I was looking at NEXT weeks TV Times. lol

Got all hot under the collar thinking about it............wishing my life away.

From the reports in the papers, Anton is not getting much work done, too many fag breaks apparently.

Victoria is training for 30 hours a week, whereas the rest are training for about 12 hours.................competitive?

OK kids, back to the sequins.
:-D

Might try that MTG!

Be like Jimmy Cricket, Tess.

Paint L and R on your wellies.

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Thank you for your tips/encouragement MTG

However, I reckon that the only type of dancing I could do nowadays is Belly dancing.

I don't think that getting left and right mixed up, and tending to fall over my own feet would come into it somehow.

Plus ..... I have got the belly +++ for it!

Actually I would love to dance with Anton. He is my favourite!

Poor old Anton,

Ann, then Nancy, then Jerry.

He must have upset someone in the SCD team. :-D

Here Tess, let me show you..................

One two cha cha cha, one two cha cha cha

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

No MTG, I was talking to Bobtrain.

I'm not blonde either, but I do trip over my own feet!
i mix up left and right too so would make a terrible dancer.

Anton really would have something to fear if he had me for a partner. Luckily for him, I'm not a celeb. so that won't happen.

Tess, are you saying I look like Mandy? I aint blonde! Nor do I trip over my own feet! Cheek! ;-)

Merlin, you look after your own spangly bits! Are you putting them up all over your potting shed?

Did anyone else see the look of fear in Anton's eyes?

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
