Valerie Day Welcome everybody to this great group. See you on the dance floor soon. Spread the word to all your friends. Let everyone know what a friendly Tango event this is. All the best Ruth x
I want to say a big THANK YOU to Toppers and Kath (Martin and Kath Topping from SIMPLY TANGO PRESTON) for keeping over 50 dancers very happy both on and off the dancefloor at my Argentine Tango tea dance https://www.facebook.com/groups/403033373817795/ at Croft Village Memorial Hall near Warrington on Sunday 12th June.
No matter what the weather or how many other events are on my regulars turn up with their dance shoes and happy faces to chat, dance and dine with other similarly-minded folk, and I feel so privileged that they are prepared to spend time with us, travel (sometimes over 2 hours) to us, and continue to exude friendliness to each other and follow tango etiquette and common sense.
Not only that, but all our DJs were once again attending on Sunday – so great to see once again that camaraderie. At Tea and Tango I feel we have a happy family and long may it continue!
Next tea dance is on Sunday 10 July 2022 at 2pm to 6pm in Croft Village Memorial Hall, Mustard Lane, Croft, Warrington WA3 7BQ and I look forward to seeing you there x

Plenty of donations and ticket prices made the effort for the Charity tango Weekend worth it for Derian House Children’s Hospice in their 25th year
