Well..you could 'dance 'to those kinda tunes ..fun music!

Dont worry Gerry....my youngest has a good laugh when he sees me attempting 'SALSA' ....
but I do my best..Ive got the CD and video...and I love it..though sometimes I get 'out of sinc' with arms and legs..but great fun!

While we're on subject of music and dance...........
Theres another tune that has me on my feet and moving...but dont know what its called and who sings it.....

Its got all girls names in it and goes something like this:
A little bit of Rita in my soul
A little bit of Jessica all night long.....la la la..etc
When I was in CVO last Sept. it was playing on their radio in the little pottery market there..and without realising it..I started 'girating 'to it..I got peculiar looks from the lady owner

Well..I was only enjoying myself

Anyone tell me what its called pleased?......Ta....Ellie

Whew

All that girating in the pottery market, Ellie i'm deeply disapointed that I wasn't a witness to this demonstration, I'm having enough trouble with the 'rising sap' as it is. Any claims for damages due to pottery being droppd and broken by onlokers? I can only say that it's a good job the other sisters were'nt with you, now that blows the mind

Keep rockin snowball,

"EASYJET is demanding proof Tiger Feet star Les Gray is dead — in a row over flights booked in his name.

A children’s charity bought tickets to fly the Mud singer and his wife from Portugal to Glasgow for a benefit concert.

Les, 57, died of cancer at the weekend. KidsCharities UK asked for a £430 refund. But the budget airline is demanding a death certificate.

A spokesman said yesterday: “There may be people out there with the same name.”

Charity boss Caroline McFarlan raged: “I can’t believe it.”"
