A Practising Molly Dancer Once Again
Apr. 15th, 2009 01:11 amIt's been 4 years (almost exactly) since I regularly practiced with Gogs and although I've danced with them a few times since I left Cambridge, at Sidmouth last year I was at the stage that I felt I really didn't remember the dances well enough to dance out with them anymore, so haven't been to any dance out with them since.
Started to rectify that this evening though :-)
For the first time since I left Cambridge I'm in a position where I can go back up for practices. OK, it's not feasible to go every week (especially given what time it is and the fact I still need to get up tomorrow *gulp*), but I'm definitely going to try for once a month.
Even said I'd go to Wallingford with them, so now I'd best go to more practices to get myself back up to speed again.
Was nice to see everyone again and was good to see Andrew before he disappears tomorrow.

Apparently they met up with some of Gog Magog on Friday (May Day) in Cambridge but we couldn't go because of work *sulk*
So maybe if you keep meeting up with them and I keep up with PD, we may meet up one day. And of course we won't recognise each other because we will be wearing strange and wonderful face paint...

I don't think I know what you look like anyway, so I'm not sure the face paint makes a huge amount of difference. Maybe it even helps, as I'm fairly sure this is the only userpic that's actually me.
