I had a good day today (some pictures)
I got up in the morning and did my chanting. Then I cooked a big lunch, after eating which I needed to lie down for a nap. ;)

Then I got some programming work done for a friend that I had promised which I had been putting off too long, so that was a weight off my mind.

Finally in the evening I went out to a charity dance. I took some pictures, but only with my phone camera so they're not good quality. I had a lovely time.











That's the travelling dance school I am learning from.

2. My dear billyskank!
Oh, sweetie...

I'm glad you had a nice day...

The dance looks like it was fun, and I hope you had a great time there...

I love dancing, and I wish I could get my husband to do it too!

:hug:

6. It was.
I think I like the rumba best. It's simple but it's so nice. I love a social foxtrot too. :hi:

11. G'night Billyskank
Great pics, the aesthetic is improved because of the camera. It is about motion and mystery. Sweet dreams.

13. Is that swing?
I read that you were taking jive classes but those folks look too subdued for jive.

17. Probably ballroom mostly
We did some jive, but most of the dances were quicksteps, waltzes, cha chas, that sort of thing. But you're right, I am taking jive lessons now. Two classes done.

:hi:

20. Dancing is so cool.
I really don't know why more people don't do it.

The instructor says the Strictly Come Dancing tv show has transformed his business, though.
