That was the theme of the SLANZA Dance held on the 22nd of October 2005. I was soo thrilled to be invited. We had a whole tableful of friends, and I was happy that Sushilla and I met up after a long while. She had permed her hair and looked gorgeous. I told her, she reminded me of a movie-star, though I couldn’t put my finger on which one. Well, several others had told her she looked like Diana Ross – I agree!
Ranjith picked me up first then we picked up Dorian and then Sushilla. Udesh and Chairmain, Pushpa and her husband, the little old doctor couple made up our table of ten. I love the little couple. She adores dancing and he goes along to please her. Such a lovely, lovely thing to see in a married couple….. and a couple that has been together for such a long time too.
The music was provided by Sohan & the Xperiments and
Sush wore her new purple long gown. This was a first, I’ve always seen her in short little dresses. Dorian was effusive in his appreciation! But really, she did look lovely. I wore my new gold and black dress – to go with the theme J
Unfortunately no one at our table won any of the draws ….. sigh! But still we had a lovely, lovely evening. The dance was over by 4.00 a.m. and I was home before 5. What I liked about it was that we had gone to a dance… and they gave us ample time to do just that …. Dance. Loads of competitions and speeches didn’t interrupt the smooth flow of music…… and there was plenty of good music for dancing. The baila competition was held in double quick time, leaving everyone quite pleased, including the participants. There were lots of known faces there. Faizal Bonzo was the compere. Angela was there, as was Prince Ratnam and Kevin Nugera. The Burgher Association Dance was on the same day too……. Pity we had to choose! But still it was an absolutely lovely evening and I enjoyed every single minute of it J
