In July 2009 I received an email from Bent Mortensen (Chairman) of Country Connections in Odense, Demark advising that they were holidaying in Eastbourne in May 2010 and asked if they could join in one of my classes and on 19th May this year 32 linedancers from Country Connections joined my class of 50 dancers.

I arranged for my friends from Kandel Country to attend with their linedance stall and a class member also brought along her handmade cards.

The evening was a great success with a mixture of improvers and intermediates and was filled with enjoyment and laughter and was exactly what linedancing should be about. It felt as though all of the dancers from both clubs had been friends for a long time and it certainly proved to me that. once again linedancing has no barriers, no language problems and certainly provides lots of good friends.
