Hi Niels,
Bettan's right its a great little fun dance . I am Expecting lots of smiles and laughing in tomorrows class.You did a great job of breaking the music down Niels first class. So glad you kept the steps easy so all levels can enjoy it .This dance deserves to do well
I can't wait to teach it.
Best Wishes Victoria xx

Taught this dance today as planned Mixed level room.The steps are easy, once we grasped continuing after bridge and where the 48 count restart went, this dance was a big winner for us. The less confident dancers took their lead from the intermediates and the dance came together with lots of big smiles and cheers for the cut throat finale.Thank you Niel's for making us laugh your dance is awesome.
THE GANG AND VICTORIAxxx

Fantastic dance !! Boney M would not have been aware of the intriguing information recently made available, that indeed it was a British Agent (spy) who fired the final fatal shot into Rasputin's body. His name was Oswald Rayner who came from Smethwick .......a great place for line dancing these days !
