CHOREOGRAPHERS NOTE:

This dance was written at the Christchurch airport as  Anne and I  awaited our flight back

to Australia after my October workshop tour Sue and Danuta were waiting patiently to

wave goodbye to us. To fill in the time I suggested that we write a dance ... so we did, and

it  was fun too.  I never write steps without  music, but as they say, never is a long long

time, and this time I did just that.!   See, you should never say never!  Mind you, it has

taken  4 months for me to find a piece of music to suit the steps.  We all wrote 8 steps each,

which we did with great fervour as we wanted to get the dance finished before we had to

board, and that turned out  to be in about 10 minutes. We certainly amused the staff at

the airport, they couldn't keep their eyes off us.  In retrospect, I guess we were lucky not to

have been locked up!  Anyhow folks..... I hope you enjoy this easy little dance which is

written  to an Alan Jackson song off his new album 'Drive'.

See you on the floor sometime... or at the airport!!!!!
