Well that’s it, the last Tuesday. From now on LimerickTango classes are on Thursdays.
There has been a tango class in Limerick every Tuesday, except the Christmas break, since we started in January 2006. There’s been some good times.
Roll on Thursday.
I would like to begin by thanking Adrian & Amanda for travelling to Ireland, to début in Limerick of all places. For their fantastically clear and precise teaching. For their warmth and for their elegance. I think the happy glow on the faces of the class participants said it all.
Thank you to Brigitte of Paris-Tango.co.uk for helping to arrange for Adrian & Amanda’s visit to Ireland.
I would like to thank the class participants who put up with the 30 minute delay to allow those driving through the torrential rain make it for the start of the class.
I would like to thank those people who drove through the torrential rain when lesser souls would have given up and turned back.
I would like to thank those people who after driving to Limerick through the rain and home again on the Friday night, got up on Saturday morning and did it all again.
Specifically I would like to thank Monica, Louise and Sabina for putting on a wonderful spread. Louise again for manning the door.
All the ladies for the wonderful birthday waltz.
Those that came, that don’t dance, because it was my birthday and they wanted to see what it was all about.
If I didn’t get to dance with someone or didn’t get to speak to someone my apologies there were things coming at me from left, right and centre.
Thanks to Tango Fiesta Dublin (formerly Tango Essence) for partnering me in this venture and making it possible to bring Adrian & Amanda to Ireland.
Finally thank you to everyone, you made it a fantastic night.
Limerick Tango, in association with Paris-Tango.co.uk and Tango Essence, is proud to present:
