I cannot believe that it's been over a year since I last wrote on my blog! How did that happen? Life took over I guess... sorry folks!
If I was to cover all I have been up to in the last year it would take too long... so instead I'll give you a wee outline of what's ahead for me in 2018... It's going to be a jetsetting year- so get your diaries out, heres a wee view of mine....
Edinburgh- There is a new Moroccan restaurant in Edinburgh (south Clerk St) called Souq, and they have a bellydance show every Saturday night. Natalie, Moyra and I are the resident dancers... so if you come along you'll get to see one of the 3 of us perform! (I'm dancing this weekend- 10th March!) www.souq-edinburgh.com
