This is a nice thread amongst all the I hate xyz threads.

Dance Partner: Difficult. Should really be a ballroom specialist since I would want to dance ballroom. Unfortunately Vincent is too short, Ian dances quite nice ballroom but is too tall. So probably has to be Anton (if I can shut him up for a while) or possibly Brendan, since I think his choreography is quite nice. OK anyone then.

Dance Order:

Week 1: would want to start off with the waltz as it's easiest
Weeks 2 to 11 don't mind
Week 12: Argentine Tango/Newly choreographed foxtrot
Week 13: Cha cha/Tango
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Song choice
Strictly traditional I'm afraid. A bit of Frank Sinatra (e.g. Night and Day) or Bobby Darin (I'm beginning to see the light) for the foxtrot. A well recognised tango (La Cumparsita, Jalousie, Hernando's Hideaway)


Scores

A low start followed by steady increase over the week, starting with fair criticism but resulting in the judges giving me all 10s in the last week and remarking on the incredible journey I've been on!
