I just wanted to say thank you to Elaine (Derbyshire Dancer) for arranging todays meet in Matlock. I went at the last minute (on the spur of the moment) and I am so pleased that I did. I was the first to leave (party pooper) as I am off shortly to a friends surprise birthday party. I would love to have stayed longer as there were quite a few people that I never got a chance to speak to. Everyone that I chatted to was really nice and I hope that one day we can have another and I might get to chat with everyone. Thanks again - Chrissie x

It was lovely to meet you Jess and the look on Sue's face when I said that I had been sent to keep an eye on her will stay with me too:))))))))))))) I found out when I got home that I don't have to leave until 7.00 - it's a good job I didn't know that at the meet though, or I would probably have stayed another hour and been late:))

Yep ,but they are still in the camera! Bear with me mine are not the best - certainly the least incriminating - i didnt take the photograph of the member laying on the floor with her legs in the air!

Joy - you could have come with ken. It was a scream! we Seemed to spend quite some time rearranging the furniture as i recall!

Unknown Report 1 Oct 2005 23:18

Joy, Maybe next time ??? We could have done with some extra help ... just moving the furniture !! Every time another unexpected person arrived, we had to find an extra table ! then the table got SOOOO long, we couldn't see from one end to the other, so we rearranged the entire room !! It was so much fun ... and well worth pulling our back out for ! Jess ended up on the floor so that was one less table needed ! Elaine :-)
