      - thanks. I should've asked my daughter. (NT) -- old Mum, 00:50:50 07/01/09 Wed
- Hi All. I sent mine to Leeann just now, got one good one of all the morning sections, but I left at 4 so missed the afternoon sorry. (NT) -- Ceara, 03:02:25 06/29/09 Mon
- Just got some now - will put up in next few mins. Thanks to everyone who just sent some! (NT) -- LD, 03:17:05 06/29/09 Mon
- Is there not a rule regarding the length of dresses I think some of our older dancers might need to recheck their skirt lengths (NT) -- some look rather short to me, 04:01:52 06/29/09 Mon
  - Photos taken from that angle can give that impression. I think they look gorgeous, fabulous athletic legs to be proud of. What is the rule hoping to achieve anyway? (NT) -- DM not a paedophile!, 15:43:27 06/29/09 Mon
    - i believe we have discussed this on here before... the ruling is 10cms or 4 inches above the knee, but nobody enforces that rule. Some probably are too short, but it's not a NZ problem, it's world wide and unless CLRG decide to enforce, it's not really an issue. (NT) -- It hopes to achieve modesty, same as the neckline rule (which everyone does adhere to lol), 18:27:15 06/29/09 Mon
- i must say I LOVED the Dench sister's new dresses and Borrklyn's. Where did they come from? (NT) -- Dancer, 18:30:50 06/29/09 Mon

        Brooklyn has improved heaps too. she's a lovely little dancer (NT) -- *, 01:38:00 07/02/09 Thu

Auckland Regionals -- Spectator, 14:58:51 06/30/09 Tue [1]
I just wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS to everyone wo attended, danced and ran the competition on Saturday. I thought that everyone looked and danced lovely, i thought that all the dancers were really lovely to each other, loved the way that I saw older dancers helping younger ones. Loved the way it ran on time and the way everyone came back with something. I thought it was really well done and it was an awesome day.
Well done to all the Auckland teahcers.

- Something similar to this is being discussed on the Aussie board in regards to their numbers. With the Mc Aleer Feis and GC Feis gaining popularity dancers, parents and TC's must decide which Feis to attend as they are consecutive Feis'. Hard decision but something that was bound to happen. (NT) -- Loved the WS but am wanting to try Mc Aleer and GC too., 14:09:18 06/19/09 Fri

Question... -- dancer, 02:01:29 05/26/09 Tue [8]
i am working on a project on Irish Dancing. Part of it is about famous people that have done it and stuff i have found that 2 new zealand actors used to dance, Katrina Devine and Madeline Sami. Does anyone know when they danced, what school they danced for and whether they were good or not? I want to write about a paragraph about it. Also, what other famous nz dancers have there been? I know about Aislinn Ryan, anyone else worth writing about?
