Well, that was a demo of demo-y-ness.
An enjoyable event, obviously much liked by the attendees. Most of whom were a little tipsy by the time we got our turn - the drinks available for purchase had progressed from champagne to cowboys. The venue was packed, and scented, near the stage, with chocolate fountain. Near the back it was mostly floral (rose based) to go with the massage tables. Some of the jewellery stands had nice things that tempted me to look at the price tags, but not to buy. The routine worked OK, despite the distinct lack of good dance floor. My lead started a little fast (he was having difficulty hearing the music), but I was able to take one of the early spins very slowly and get us back into the right timing, and in the freestyle, I hijacked where appropriate to give us good endings, so overall we gave a very good impression.
The demo team liked the birthday pie I brought (the same as the lemon tartlet recipe, but orange, with couverture drizzled thickly over the top).
Now it is time for me to get ready to go out, and LJ is undergoing maintenance YAY.
