So the Oxford Frankie100 video is done (a bit late, but hey, swing rhythm right?).

I feature heavily, mostly looking confused and trying to catch a glimpse of what the next move is meant to be...i am so bad at choreo! :D Thanks to Aphroditi for following like a champ, Griff for cutting most of my mistakes out in the edit, and the OLH/OLX team for general awesomness (oh and Andy Flemming for managing to cram the whole choreo learning sesh into an hour the week before) ;)

Youtube upload is from the OLH account, so full video credit over there

We had a great time at Frankie100! Read about it on our latest blog post:  Frankie100: An Amazing Adventure

Lindy Chorus Badassery

Spent yesterday fannying about with trains (thanks Slough; anytime you want to upgrade your signals just let me know), and learning the Lindy Chorus in preparation for the grand recording session at Oxford Lindy Exchange next weekend.

Now i just want to do it more. And faster. And without the awkward triple speed follower spin linking the back Charleston to the hand to hand Charleston and a replacement anti-clockwise spin instead so the follows have some chance at looking graceful.

will post pics/video after OLX as i'm hoping that it will look a little more polished by that point (depending on how much sleep i have had by Sunday!)
