Dance .....


Like nobody's watching.
I've always liked dancing. When I was about 17, every Saturday night I used to go to 'The Music Hall' in Shrewsbury with my group of girl friends. I remember this one night, one of the local star dancers, grabbed my hand and pulled me on to the dance floor. ME!



We danced like there was no tomorrow and everybody there stood back and clapped when the record finished. It was fun. Do you have any happy memories?

    Happy memories galore but none of them about dancing.

    Oh, how I love to dance. Like you, I went to at least one dance a week when I was a kid. American Bandstand had us all dancing in the 60's. I can still get up and dance for about half a song. After then, it is sit down time for me to catch my breath.

    I've always been a very self conscious dancer...clumsy and awkward. I loved the video of the couple at the wedding.

    Even when I could dance I couldn't dance like that.

    Certainly no happy memories of dancing. I'm a typical awkward bloke with arms and legs all in the wrong places.

    That couple are so together in their dancing - surely a good omen for a marriage! Memories of dancing? Well there was a time, a long time ago now, it was a friend's 30th birthday and we all went out on a girl's night to a Greek restaurant and ended up doing Greek dancing to some rather fabulous Zorba music! It was great! I love dancing too Molly.

    Like others lots of happy memories, but not many involve any dancing. At 17 I was the proverbial wallflower, though things improved when I got to university. But sadly I'm a poor dancer who loves watching other people dance. :-)

    I dance like nobody's watching - when nobody's watching! I keep my best moves (or so I think) for when I'm dancing round the living room!

    Like you I love to dance and remember those early dances in church halls and school discos, but have never been up there with everyone watching. What a lovely memory Molly.

    Gosh I have not danced in years Molly except at a wedding. I likely looked like an idiot then. Thanks for welcoming my kiddo home. She is keeping me busy. xo, olive

    y boyfriend and I used to be demon dancers, regularly emptying the floor because nobody else had room when he threw me around. I loved it.

    I havent danced for many years. How very sad. My husband doesn’t know how to dance.
