Ceilidh at Godalming

Bill and I decided to see the New Year in with a ceilidh, rather than our usual fancy-dress evening down at the Prince of Wales. The band was Bursledon Village Band, who were very good, and had made lots of effort with sparkly waistcoats, flashing hats, Bridge Violin etc! We could bring our own booze, which worked out much cheaper, and there was a nice buffet in one of the back rooms. The time flew with something to do, other than sit in the pub drinking beer.
The caller was not as good as one's we've previously experienced - he seemed rather too serious, and missed the midnight moment because he was determined to teach us 2 more dances. Somehow did my back in, not used to being pushed around on the dance floor I guess. Still, we had a great time and met some nice people.
