Super nice dancing with Independence Matters at Harford Hill so interesting to hear your reminiscences, especially of dancing at the Samson and Hercules (where so many people met). I felt the joy of Jiving, your memories lifted me off my feet, spun me round and brought me there. Delighted you have invited me for a monthly visit and looking forward catching up !!
