JfW - some classic lines:
"Mind you, Katya’s rolled up in a maternity dress so I guess the training’s been fun."
"Back for a Rumba with her hair down and a dress that only fastens at the front, Kara slinks and bends and the dry ice cleared just as my glasses steamed up."
-Paranoid Android, Katya, who eats eggs for breakfast - without taking them out of the chicken first.
his greatest asset is also his Achilles heel – yep, Aliona: largely unhindered by outerwear, but wholly unhindered by convention,
a certain Natalie Lowe – and if you thought Katya was scary, this one bites the heads off people who eat live chickens for breakfast.
Sensing an onslaught of Anglo Saxon, Mrs JfW raised a cautionary eyebrow so I had to resort to subterfuge to articulate a satisfactory response. ―• ――― ― ―••• •―•• ――― ――― ―•• ―•―― •―•• •• ―•― • •―•• ―•―― I said with considerable restraint.
I have to say that at this point I forgot my morse code and reverted to my pagan past........:D:o

Wonderful as ever JFW, Monday nights won't be the same after the series ends with no more musings to read!
Then there’s Matt – athlete, aesthete, Gentleman Jim, the politest man on the planet who can back-flip onto a unicycle with a sheep under each arm. His dancing’s not bad either. Unfortunately his greatest asset is also his Achilles heel – yep, Aliona: largely unhindered by outerwear, but wholly unhindered by convention, her new wave choreography is in danger of upsetting the stuffed shirts, even as they loosen their collars.
Hard to choose as it all tickles, but that is my favourite bit - just.:p
While they’re doing that we get another of those surreal Strictly moments where Notdead’s ego outstrips his judgement and we’re subjected to something so hideous that, right now, I’d pay good money to see Ann Widdecombe dancing with John Sargeant.
Your dismissal of Scott was brutal but so true, and showed just what Wikileaks is missing - a talented humorist to comment on a few of those cables.
I was, however, stunned at your admission that you actually needed to wrestle Hammy for the umbrella. If physical combat isn't your thing, you could keep him in line with psychological warfare. Show him this link:
and mention that at the feast they offer an OAP's portion option using...yes, you guessed it. All you'll ever need to ensure best behaviour is to keep a saucepan by the sofa.
Oh, JfW, that was absolutely brilliant! You can tell there's a final looming on the horizon, because you're upping your game - if that were possible. So many laugh out loud moments I'd only be repeating your post by naming them.
Thanks Johnster, can't believe we only have one more blog left to look forward to - unless you treat us to a Xmas Special (there's a smooch in it for you!).
BTW, if Hammy starts going bonkers with a certain 4 out of the 102 dances in the final, I could always threaten to lend you my neighbour's cat for a couple of nights; very "efficient" where rodents and nibblers are concerned. :eek:
John, I think that's one of your best ever, and I love all your musings! Perfect recap and brilliant insights and so many hilarious snippets to re-read and laugh at again later :D
Thank you!

Would you like me to bid on a suit of armour on E-Bay for you in case Kara doesn't lift the glitterball?
Thank you! x

You are finishing with a big knee-slide John.
With John's Musings to read, and the hilarious Artem/James rumba to watch on youtube, I feel well and truly spoilt today:D

Thank you. Mwah!
Love you JFW and Hammy xxx
got a guffaw from me.
:D:D
thanks JfW:cool:
Just wondering how you came to that conclusion, when their routine consisted of 40 seconds of dancing QS together?
Thank you!
Brilliant.
