Aliona has just tweeted a Happy New Year message from "the five of us".

She is blooming!
Oh to be able to look so good when pregnant! I'm sure it helps to be a stunning toned dancer in the first place!

A very happy New year to you all and the best of luck in all you do in 2017. I shall now partake in much curry as is tradition at bubble towers!

A copy was hoovered up by mistake.
Please give your cyberfriend Korks a break!
I long to get my healing hands around
Jay's poorly neck while in his dressing-gown...



(He in dressing-gown, not my hands. )
Although there's very little doubt
That someone's tongue is hanging out
To earn the honour of the neck
Understand I really have to check
That whilst you yearn to work away
I have to think what's best for Jay
That scarf will do it's very worst
If I don't get someone in there first
but not one who will go to town
Interfering with his dressing gown.....

His dressing-gown will remain intact
As fingers and neck gently interact.
So am I appointed as Manipulator?
I'm sure I could be his nobble locator...

Well it's really not quite up to me
As to make these choices I'm not free
So hard as I may like to try
I'm afraid the decision's with Isih....

Just popping in to wish good things in 2017 for all Jalionistas.
To Jay, onward and upward in his career and to Aliona and Vincent a beautiful, happy and healthy baby.

Have a great time in Dublin all of you going on the 7th.

Ah no, I'm afraid not. I'm terribly lazy and it's takeaway all round! In fact for Christmas this year we treated ourselves to a dishwasher so I don't even have to wash up...Happy days!

Time marches on and it's nearly time to say goodbye to 2016.

It's been a difficult year, a difficult 18 months to be precise, and, in common with others on the thread, I'd like to say thank you for the laughs, the wibbles, the fun and the diversion from the heavier side of life that everyone on here has provided.

Most of all, it's a massive thank you to Jay, who has provided a real and lovely beacon of light in the darkness and, of course, to Aliona, for making Jaliona happen.

I wish everyone the best of everything for 2017 and my big wish for the year is that Jay goes on from strength to strength and has a blast in the process.

So, to mark the dawn of a New Year, this is a video I came across today on YouTube, completely off-topic, but a little bit magical, all the same:

Happy New Year to everyone🎉🎉

Thanks to Jaliona, to SCD, to the SCD tour, to all of us here, to 18 months in DS, to the gutter 😄..., to Keep Dancing, to BIG The Musical (although not seen it yet I am enoying reports)
I will look forward to the West End.

Take care everyone in 2017.

Happy New Year to everyone. I know the last year has not been good in so many ways for a lot of people all over the world but a lot of good things did happen, even taking Jay out of the equation. This is Cmdr Chris Hadfield’s twitter feed, he has been listing good things that happened this year, and there are a lot of them.

https://twitter.com/Cmdr_Hadfield

Good things can happen when people work together for a common goal, I think the continuance of this thread shows that out of a love for a dancing dork and his Russian taskmaster a lot of people have got a tremendous amount of love, support, laughs and friendships over the last year and long may it continue.

I hope 2017 brings you all peace, health and happiness and I look forward to “seeing” you all next year.

As an aside, don’t worry Korky and BB I’ll sort his scarf out next week when I see him

CatO - love the video, a little piece of calm and tranquility in the world to hold on to and I will try to see a murmuration next year

Hannah - I’ve missed you on here, sparring and getting down in the gutter with you, it’s just not the same on twitter. Hope to meet up again in 2017 with you and himself.

As midnight is drawing near
And we turn another year
I hope for all of us, and Jay,
That we have our health each day.

I've so enjoyed following Jay's happy upward trajectory and sharing it with all you posters. Jay's such a worthy subject and this thread is such eclectic fun and I know that this will continue into our third year and then onward into our fourth et cetera.

It did Jayfan - had to smile remembering us all noticing songs last New Year.


Best wishes to those seeing Big, best wishes to Jay and all the cast and hope Big continues to do so well - and into the West End

Many thanks to all those who
keep the lists of show clips and attendees
collate the jobs and dictionary
post touching, amusing and all round clever poems
hunt down clips, photos, tweets and quotes
tell us interesting bits about early J and early A and TW
and post anything at all on the thread - on topic or OT

It's all so interesting - thank you everyone


Happy New Year to all


PS thanks Lola for the mention of Cmdr Hadfield's Twitter feed - it's cheering

Slightly early I know, but happy new year everyone! Very best wishes for 2017.🍾👍💕
Here's to another year of Jaylarks, Jaymeets, Jay inspired poetry&dreams&stories, trips to Jay eccentric zone, Jay photos&gifs, trips to the TW rabbit hole, Jayjobs and jayictionary and hopefully Jaliona dancing and Jay in the West End with Big.

Thank you to all the posters, chroniclers, librarians and curators of our various activities, poets and bards, photo and video finders, list keepers, Jaliona and TW historians, and everyone who contributes to this marvelous thread.

Long may it continue!
I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year.🎆🍻🎉🍾

It's been an absolute delight following our pair with such a lovely bunch of funny, talented, encouraging, caring, supportive& like-minded people. A huge (should that be BIG?) thank you to all for all the witty banter, pictures, videos, poems, Jayjobs, Jayctionary etc. I've been moved to tears, metaphorically split my sides with laughter & am so glad I took the plunge to de-lurk & make my first post having never done anything like this before.

Can't wait to see what the new year holds - hopefully BIG in the West End for J✨✨ & a beautiful, healthy little one for Ali & Vin👶🍼

Here's to a peaceful & prosperous 2017 for all.
A large 'hear, hear' to all the words previously written, but especially BIB.

I would also like to add a BIG 'thank you' to all the Jalionistas I've met over the year who were all so patient when I could only move at a snail's pace, but who made me laugh so much. (Edinburgh in particular will never be forgotten. ) I've had so much fun meeting you all, and hopefully will be able to do it all again when Big reaches the WE.

Happy New Year to Jay, Aliona, Vin, and Damien, too.
Jay - Thank you for letting jayfan almost drag you into Wetherspoons in Wimbledon (though with her back-up from jnb and Arnostae you perhaps decided resistance was futile ) thank you for the hug at Plymouth.
Aliona - sorry I never got to meet you (and sorry we were the initial reason Jay was late for the Saturday afternoon Wimbledon show ).
Vin - a virtual wave this time instead of an actual one like in the eaterie in Edinburgh.
Damien - thank you for looking after 'our boy' and for not seeming to mind when you get accosted by the strange women who inhabit this thread.

Happy New year to all my Jalionas friends on this thread. It was such a pleasure to meet some of if you at Wimbledon. I am proud that I managed to pluck up courage to ask Jay for a nice picture with you nelliek in the pub. Such a lovely smile!

Also I am so pleased you liked your badges, it was my bit of lounacy for 2016.
I don't post much but I love all the posts on or off topic and it was wonderful to put names to faces at Wimbledon.

Wishing you all health and happiness in 2017
I am looking forward to meeting you in the West End later on this year.. keeping fingers crossed! xxxxxx

happy new year again all
Just noticed that on Rosa's Mcguiness Daily site, someone called Sophie Louise as posted a pic of her and Jay, from 28th Dec and she says he smashed it in Big, even though he was sick with the flu 😷 Where's Korky, he might need some TLC

Oh dear, Jay has caught the flu.
And he's feeling rather blue.
But I know just what to do.
So excuse me while I help him through... 😙

Happy new year to all of you. 🎉 I am not contributing much but want to thank all of you for keeping this AT going and for providing me with all the news, pics, poems etc. about Jay and Aliona.

Hope BIG will come to the WE and keep my fingers crossed I can go and meet some of you. It all depends on the money. Not sure I can afford to go at the moment.

Enjoy 2017 and thanks again.👍

I intended to post on here yesterday with some more thoughtful stuff, but then I got a call to say my dad had been taken ill again, and this morning the hospital have told me I should be there. So I'm on a train home, and may or may not see everyone in Dublin on Saturday.

So short and sweet it is. Happy new year to you all, and thank you for everything this year.

Sooooooo, 2016 was a hot mess. Come on universe, let's make 2017 special for the right reasons.

Completely OT but had to say I've just watched Sleeping Beauty (Mathew Bourne) on BBC2. What a brilliant production and a feast of dancing.

If you missed it, do catch up on i player.

Wishing on a star
That's already burnt out
Is something many know
A lot about

So let's not make wishes
This year and simply see
If good things can happen
Intentionally

There's hope for the world
And Jay knows it too
But deeds and not wishes
Will make dreams come true

The past year became
Not one of the best
So let's help each other
And put 'luck' to rest
