On Sunday I took my tapes and PA to a party in Swinton for a family who have a get-together every year.
Everyone had brought food and they all joined in the dancing (mind you, some sneaked off after the first dance - they needn't think I didn't notice!)
At the end two of the family had produced a quiz. Some of the question were very obscure - do you know a one word term for 'the day after tomorrow'? I didn't and I still don't quite believe it even if it IS in Wiki
This was a repeat booking from two years ago. I'm still waiting for the photo's of Helen's wedding dress, Mike

Kids, cars, chaos
In October I went up to Bury to call with the Millstone Band for the first time. This weekend I enjoyed another gig with them, nearer home. A 40th birthday party in Sandiway.
As we were setting up there were preschoolers riding cars all around. There is obviously a playgroup that meets there as there was a room full of toys to one side of the main hall.
As you can guess I didn't call my hardest dances. The parents and children made a good job of dancing the simpler ones (once we had redirected the ride-ons off the dance floor).
The adults without children were less keen to get up - their loss. I expect they were enjoying the party in their own way. I hope they liked the music as much as I did.
