Feis update
Because of the fire alarm and general things that go bump in the feis, we are running about two hours late. Nothing could prevent it, but at least it is sunny outside. Oh yes, we are inside :(
Plenty of food, great coffee, fun people and Irish Dancing, what more could one want?

The fire alarm has just gone off - possibly a false alarm, but if the sprinklers go off, there will be a lot of wet wigs and dresses :)
The 13 & Over Open dancers are now on stage

The results from yesterday and today's competition are in the old-fashioned, analogue (paper) format, so at some time after the feis, I will transcribe them and then put them online...

Warm-up dances are over, set dances about to start
These will be followed by the Premiership dances and then presentations.
Somewhere, out in the real world, a guest commentator is probably trying to raise the energy and interest to visit....

The sound of hard shoes gracing the stage can only mean one thing!
More dancing!
Of course the quality of comment should improve tomorrow when an experienced Guest Commentator is expected to visit :)
What we can tell you is that 11 Years & Open dancers have just left the stage and Primary Premiership 9 & 10 Years hard shoe round are about to dance.
