Well the ACDC school have been attending this feis for the last couple of years but the friendship between both TC's is well known. Kenny Academy usually attend too...but there were more schools from London this year and more per age group, in the younger ages especially that have never been seen before. 30 in the u14's n 15's is about 10 or more than this feis usually draws. Have attended every year for 10 years so think I know when the competition is growing and can hazard a guess at why!! I wish people would take their heads out of the sand and SEE what's going on, not just at this feis, but all over ID. -- For the love of the dance

In reply to: ???? 's message, "I think if you look at the results from last year you will see lots of dancers from "further afield", and Stella wasn't judging the Worlds last year. As the Op said in her original post, last years feis ran more than 4 hours late, again, this was due to the high number of entries.Maybe the high number of entries was due to this being the only feis on this date?" on Sun, Mar 04 2007, 16:14:23

[> [> [> [> Quite honestly it'd take too long in a post on an ID board. Suffice to say that there is and probably always will be underhandedness in ID. Why we stay in it, heaven knows, I guess in the hope that at some point things will change. People will say there's nothing wrong, and it's those people who need to pull their heads out of the sand, look around and see what's happening. Last years BN's and all the posts pertaining to it were evidence enough that 'Something is indeed, rotten, in ID' -- NW Mother, Mon, Mar 05 2007, 1:27:20 [1]

[> [> [> [> [> Hey Nw mum, totally agree we stay in hoping that things will change, and as the saying goes you can't change it if you're not in it. There's HUGE corruption in ID as may I say in most organisations, nothing is perfect, As adults I think most of us are extremely sceptical howver when youn children start noticing. There's a MAJOR problem. Let's talk about the Europeans, It's a long and EXPENSIVE feis to go to, yet every year people go and complain, but they still go, nothing against the organisers but WHO is reaping the benfefits? -- just me, Mon, Mar 05 2007, 1:37:50 [1]
