    Oh that brings back memories - some painful ones like when the man of the trio ducking under failed to release his partners hands and I did a sumersault - but for the most part happy times.

    I like to dance whenever possible, but I am not a member of any formal group or society of dancers if that is what you may be hinting at. I enjoy dancing at any event when the opportunity presents itself, but I would say the majority of it is done whilst in Scotland or even in London. Only a handful of people know how to dance the reels, strathspeys, etc where I live, despite the fact that I am a member of two local, formal Scottish societies. SCD and social dancing just isn't popular amongst members of the each society-they rather hire local dancers to come in a perform for them as they sit and watch (wallflowers!). I am not being disrespectful towards the aforementioned folk, many of them are dear friends, I am just stating that's how it tends to be here with Scottish societies in Saint Louis. However, lessons are offered by a very reputable SCD society in the area, so people do have the opportunity to learn if they really want to.

    Cheers,

    I'd say opinion on that is quite varied, depending on who you ask...
