Monday 3rd February 2025 - We danced three squares to Trudy and Simon in the Dining Hall this evening with guest tips from David and Penny. "Thars" were practised again for our Spring and Summer Students and later in the evening our Autumn Students were shown how to "Circle to a Line".
We all sang "Happy Birthday" to Helen P who will be celebrating at the weekend.
Monday 10th February 2025 - On a chilly and rainy evening we danced three squares in the Dining Hall to Trudy and Simon with guest tips from Penny and David. Penny had been asked to teach our Autumn Students to "Walk around your Corner, See-saw round your own" and they were soon carrying out this "figure of eight" move. Helen P brought home-baked cakes for everyone in celebration of her birthday over the weekend.
Monday 17th February 2025 - We danced three squares this evening, again in the Dining Hall, to Trudy and Simon with guest tips from Penny and David. David taught the Summer Students to "Sweep a Quarter" as in "Flutterwheel and Sweep a Quarter". We were pleased to welcome back Bob and Janet F (left) who have not been to dance with us for some time due to health issues. We also sang "Happy Birthday" to Ruth in celebration of her birthday today.
Tuesday 18th February 2025 - Pat, Mac, Bob P, Mary, Janet and David joined the family (including Allan H, Beryl's brother) and friends of our former member, Beryl Kidman, at a lovely service to celebrate her life at West Herts Crematorium in Watford.
Saturday 22nd February 2025 - Jackie, Keith, Penny, Bob, Janet and David made the journey up to Milton Keynes to celebrate the 10th Birthday of All Square at Zero at a Mainstream and Plus dance called by Gene Turner and Kevin Lovell. Kevin, the All Square at Zero caller, was also using the occasion to celebrate his 60th birthday this week.
Monday 24th February 2025 - On a slightly milder night our three Squares were soon discarding their extra clothing layers in the warm Dining Hall where we danced to Trudy and Simon with guest tips from Penny and David.
We sang "Happy Birthday" to David C who, being a "Leapling", will be celebrating his birthday sometime between Friday 28th February and Saturday 1st March.
Our Autumn Students, Elaine and Colin C, gave us the sad news that they have at last got a moving date to relocate "up North" to Greater Manchester and that next week will be their last regular dancing evening with us, although we hope that they will come back and visit in the future.
