A walk through London and happy memories pass my mind

when I saw costumes that I sold a few years back were in the Shop Window

of a well know costume company... still looking good.....oh happy days ...

past memories are so important....treasure them....

'STRICTLY' at the Rugby club!

Saturday night I was invited along with Maz  to be a judge on a charity event at the Rugby Club

of "Strictly" where members players, behind the scenes were raising money... they went to so much trouble

had been in training for 3 months... everyone had worked so hard wither routines and really very good!

outstanding winner... natural dancer! couldn't work out if i was Darcy,Bruno or Craig... but it was fun ..

Maz was in great form and great to see Phil Walker...

 


2nd Generation Dance Reunion!

Because of the classes that I started, everyone was asking me when am I going to do them  in London!

with a little encouragement from Lisa Mulidore  A 2ND GENERATION Dance Reunion has been created!

for the 29th January at Dance Attic...the fed back has been amazing! We have always said we must get together,

and never have got around to doing it... so this is a unique way .. warm up  and reunion of the old  routines lol!

something to look forward too in the new year! its brought so many photos out of the wood work.....

which has such fond memories for everyone... so many of Dougie's generation of dancers will be there...

How fabulous will that be!!!

REFLECTIONS...

Thinking about the last couple of days.... I  am trying to place my thoughts...

It keeps coming up in my mind about the people in my life, how lucky I am 

to have My partner, family and friendships,  for all their continued support and love

The last 2 years have not been a easy ride for me, But  how can I be like this when all the other things in life

can be so cruel and sad....

In the short time we have here .. we should make the most of it... I try to be caring, giving and loving....

 

To all the friends and family  and Dougie, I have so Much love for you.... Thank you for being there...x

Thoughts to Paris..

How truly sad the news from Paris which I feel has affected everyone ....

It could of been any of us any where ..... thoughts to all the innocent  victims

and the devastating loss to their families my heart goes out to you...

What sad cruel world it can be ..... I just don't get that it stems from religion....

how can this be....In todays world we are not moving forward ..... as people...

I feel so helpless that as a person in this world I don't know what I could do to help...

It will always happen some where, some time.... How very sad... Just Why? what does it accomplish?

what does it highlight.... ...  but sadness... 

Children In Need..

My hand was on my heart watching Children in Need BBC.

From the stories, to all the amazing people that do such fantastic work 

with so many different children... I hate to see children suffer in any form...

I am so humbled ....All their fighting passion... and care and love  is what its all about....

For all the performers who perform to highlight Children In Need ,To all the amazing people behind the scenes 

who work,help and give them selves to the children ... Thank you xx
