- I have just been to america with my parents and my advice is inside -- Senior Kady, 16:26:27 01/09/09 Fri
  - I also went all around europe at the end of 2007 and did the same thing but with a UK sim card.... it workd really well (NT) -- Senior Lady Again, 16:28:34 01/09/09 Fri
  - from my understanding the pricing is almost the same as roaming anywhere else except they charge you from the time the phone rings not when the call connects. what is a GSM phone? (NT) -- ta, 18:31:21 01/09/09 Fri
    - any phone that takes a SIM, however only tri-band will work in the USA :-) (NT) -- dancer, 19:15:41 01/09/09 Fri
      - What is your phone advertised as, may be interested as need to keep in touch with others over there? Pre Pay Telecom customers cannot get loan phones :( (NT) -- Ta, 19:25:49 01/09/09 Fri
        
        they can, they just need to put their phones onto a one bill plan first, can be done on your parent's account maybe? (NT) -- dancer, 22:32:09 01/09/09 Fri
        I took mine into a Vodafone store and they looked it all up in the computer. Probably easier for you just to do that. (NT) -- :), 03:48:02 01/10/09 Sat
- Roaming -- Ceara (worked in the industry a long time now lol), 18:00:50 01/10/09 Sat
  - Thanks Ceara, I am going to have to buy a phone regardless as mine is not compatible. Do u hav any idea of cost of phones in US & if it wud work in UK? (NT) -- Ta, 21:44:40 01/10/09 Sat
    - I shall look into that for you if you like :-) But it will probably be cheapest to buy one there or get something that's parallel imported here. Good selection on trade me, just make sure it is tri-band :-) it may not say tri band but will give you 3 different mHz numbers in the description instead of 2 :-) (NT) -- Ceara (hope that helps), 22:07:36 01/10/09 Sat
      - Turns out I was wrong... your CDMA handset WILL work in the Philadelphia for voice and text services. You won't be able to send pxt or anything though, Just make sure it is on a plan and enabled for roaming before you leave. Some other parts of the states are not compatible though but looks like philly should be all go. (NT) -- Ceara (hope this helps), 22:17:53 01/10/09 Sat
- we bought cheap tri-band phones off ebay before we went then got Singular Sim Cards in the US .. it was the first company we ran into. Singular to Singular was also free text and talk.. so $20 credit lasted the month we were there and still some left when we returned home. (NT) -- just get one over there - really cheap for basic phone, 05:50:22 01/24/09 Sat

- Hi everyone, Emmas mum here, thaks for the lovely comments about her dress, appreciated it after all the hard work. Emma is no longer competing, her dress will be for sale as soon as i get the chance to get to Hamilton to pick it up from Robyn. I made a total of 7 dresses for Emma over her dancing years, i prefer plain to the overdone but wont miss all the stress of dressmaking lol. (NT) -- Helen Peterken, 21:10:00 01/05/09 Mon
  - It's a shame Emma is no longer competing, she was a lovely dancer! However, if you are going to be selling any of Emma's dresses, could you please , if you get a chance, send pics and prices etc to tida, I'd love to see what you have for sale. I am about the same size as Emma, only a bit shorter, and would love to see what you have for sale! (NT) -- Original poster, 23:13:00 01/05/09 Mon

Fun Gavin For Sale -- Reasonable Offers Accepted, 09:26:21 12/31/08 Wed [1]
Really fun Gavin Doherty Dress for sale. This dress would be perfect for a championship level dancer between the ages of 9 and 11. Dress is totally unique in design which has allowed for amazing stage presence! We would love to see the dress go to a dancer who can wear it rather than seeing it sit in our closet, so make us an offer. We are asking $800 plus S & H from NH, but will consider all reasonable offers. Dress can be viewed on www.dressforyourfeis.com as their featured dress or email me for details!

    - Of the two elevations in our school they provided a very good service with regular updates of the dresses progress and each dancer got exactly the dress they wanted.

Inappropriate Posts -- Auckland Teachers, 01:02:27 12/15/08 Mon [1]
The topic of transfers, size of schools and personal attacks on dancers or teachers is highly inappropriate and in some cases very rude.
Legal action will be taken and IP address identified if this continues.
This is a MESSAGE board for Irish Dancing in New Zealand; it is not for voicing personal vendettas or making statements in an effort to stir or encourage rumors based on lies.
We are very disappointed and hurt by the comments and do not wish to see replies to this post suggesting that we are stopping anyone from voicing opinions. There is a fine line between opinions and stirring and everyone should think carefully about the comments they choose to publish on this board.
Moderator, please remove the posts below as per requests from several teachers throughout the weekend to do so.

- We had a professional dvd done but they won't arrive for a few weeks. Not sure my computer could cope with downloading the whole show and then putting on you tube, and yes our steps were part of the DOC. To give you an idea though, they danced to 'I believe' from the movie 'honey' each did a step about and then did a hip hop piece in the middle and again at the end. (NT) -- LD, 14:03:10 12/15/08 Mon
Removal of Posts -- Moderator, 06:46:02 12/15/08 Mon [1]
And again it would appear that some can not 'play nice' on the board. I have received 2 emails from teachers asking that posts or portions of posts be removed.

Yes it is nice to know who has moved where and why. If you want to know so badly ask the dancers in question.

Some of the posts removed were damaging to Irish Dance in general and for Irish Dance in Auckland in particular.

I don't like to play the Censor but I will if necessary place the board on Moderator approval of posts, which will also mean that you will only get to have information I decide is appropriate and to be honest I don't have the time (or the energy) to police the board to that degree.

I am open to suggestions as to how this board proceeds. Feel free to email me (by clicking on the link 'Contact Forum Admin') at the top of the board.

Again - please play nice.

- The fact that you are buring off so much energy a sugar free energy drink would still be an ok option but not replenish your electrolytes, muscle glycogen (glucose) and help prevent cramps and soreness the next day. If you don't like powerade or energy drinks, water with a banana and sugar free jelly lollies are great also. They release energy over a longer period of time.

- You would be best to contact the Association www.irishdancenz.co.nz and they can advise you the location of teachers and am confident they will put you in the right direction .Please try to refrain from negative comments and keep personal grievances towards any schools off this board thank you (NT) -- Positive Auckland Dancing!!, 17:35:56 12/07/08 Sun
- I would go and visit classes near where you are going to live in the new year and see what suits you. You will probably find a teacher or the dancers really suit you at one of the schools. They are all good quality schools so it is just personal preference and location that will matter. (NT) -- dancer's mum, 18:18:12 12/07/08 Sun

    - I think the idea is to put on a show at the end of the year for parents and dancers to enjoy IRISH dancing I wouldn't expect to see other forms of dancing in an irish dance show? (NT) -- Spectator, 17:48:20 12/01/08 Mon
