For once the weather girl was right! So, Agent Enquiries at my home, we planned a whole Tel: 01704 392353 two day extravaganza for outdoor [email protected] living, knowing this could be our one Web Support stab at summer. We phoned friends Tel: 01704 392333 on the Friday, rushed (me and a [email protected] million others) to the supermarket and bought anything that could be Publisher eaten raw or chargrilled or looked Betty Drummond like ice cream, ran back home [email protected] and got all the garden furniture out of its hibernation state and Managing Editor gave it a clean, spruced the garden up and by the time our Laurent Saletto [email protected] friends arrived you would have thought we were in a far away, sunny place. Editorial Assistant Dawn Middleton You would have also thought we live like this every day of the year!. It was a balmy evening filled [email protected] with light conversation, music and laughs. On the Sunday, we walked and took the sun dressed in just our T shirts and shorts. It looked as though this was never going to end. Then on Monday, Webmaster the miserable weather returned and we can only now pray this short outburst was not the entire Paul Swift summer season for 2010. [email protected] Doing all this reminded me of how important seizing the occasion is. How important living for the Dance Editor moment is. How important it is to do while you can. This is when I always admire the Line dancer Steve Healy who in any kind of weather just gets out and goes to his or her club. Whether it rains, suns, sleets [email protected] or snows most of you just get there. For an instructor, it is vital of course but for a social dancer Assistant Dance Editor you would think that most people would only be fair weather dancers. That is simply not so. And Kath Butler what about the dancers we regularly feature who are in their eighties and nineties. What are they [email protected] on to just get up, go and dance every week? If “motion is indeed lotion”, most of those people have applied this principle to their lives and continue to do so. Because there is nothing more Advertising Sales difficult than being constant and motivated, I admire them. Rob Saunderson Tel: 01704 392336 [email protected] Add to all this that when the occasion presents itself, most of you will also go for extra dancing Circulation Manager and socials and Wow! You are truly amazing. Phil Drummond So perhaps the secret of an eternal summer is to be a Line dancer. Perhaps the sun that we like [email protected] to feel on our backs can live in our minds and hearts 365 days a year. I think that next time I Design Team hear the question “What do people get out of Line dance?” I will have to say “Optimism and the Mike Rose, Ian McCabe, Amy Houghton, joy of living.” Then I will add “ What about you? How do you keep happy?”. I bet I will get some Emma Lyon and David Atherton puzzled expressions…. [email protected] Yes it is true that the weather in the UK is sometimes unpredictable but it is also true that we have no problems in finding our inside sun every day as dancers. And if we can start spreading that Credits message, who know how many new Line dancers we will have coming to our classes and clubs? ‘Boot Logo’ courtesy of London Boots Ltd. Have a good summer!
