OK. Fair comment. However (as in our case) what do you do if you have
8-10 regulars and (on a good day) 2 beginners?
If I were ever in the situation of having 6-8 beginners with whom I
could do a separate class, it would be like having my Birthday on the
25th December.

P.S. Having received today my Scottish Country Dancer magazine I now
know what Andrea looks like. Aha! Chris Ronald as well. Isn't it odd how
one makes pictures of people with whom one corresponds - and these are
totally wrong?
