Hiya from Cork, just finished my first Strictly Come Dance class with Magda…have to say that she is brill and just the greatest laugh…what a combination of Poland and Cork that girl is!

Oh, and all the young fellows in Nemo are pressing their noses up against the windows in the hall for a look at her…a fine thing she is!

Really looking forward to next term, was amazed how much I loved the cha cha cha and jive. Thought I would be useless but not as bad as I feared and anyway, it was all about having a laugh and getting fit. Feel great after it.

Also wanted to say to anyone thinking of going along alone, don’t worry. The class mates are lovely and I actually found it easier to concentrate on the moves with no-one rabbiting in my ear.

Might even try the pole fitness…eek.
