We were pleased & proud to be a sponsor for the
Swing Dance USA 2006 Convention & Competition
2,000 swing dancers - lotsa dancin' - lotsa fun
lotsa great people - lotsa perspiration & late nights
Plus - a complimentary gorgeous Gift Voucher in the
"Goody Bags" given to all Swing Dance USA attendees
Details as follows:
Swing Dance USA - Tampa Bay is the result of the nation’s
behind-the-scene emergence of Swing Dancing &
Swing Music in the last decade.
This convention is a marvelous gathering of exceptional
instructors, dancers, musicians, DJ's, talented contributors,
spectators & swing enthusiasts supported by the
Southeastern United States hottest swing dance scenes.
This is the REAL DEAL!
Swing Dance USA 2006 is recreating a weekend convention
that takes you back in time when the world was turned
on to the intimate, hip, cool, exciting, authentic
BIG SOUND of REAL Swing Music.
This venue is a REAL Vintage Show Palace built in the 1920’s,
as grand as it can be, & created for the many Vintage Films,
Big Bands & Dance marathons it has hosted during it’s rich history.
There's another reason to go to Swing Dance USA 2006,
& that's the fabulous singer Barbara Morrison.
We met Barbara & also saw her perform a couple of years ago
at the Melbourne Lindy Exchange here in Australia.
She is just "awesome".
For More info - visit The Swing Dance USA website at:
When you're in Tampa, Florida at Swing Dance USA,
make sure that you look in your "Goody Bag".
You'll find heaps of good stuff in it, including
a special little "Goody" from gorgeous.

This is what gorgeous supplied for the "Goody Bag":

If you live in Melbourne, Australia - or you're here for a visit, then
you're most welcome to make a time to call in to personally
check out our gorgeous range of shoes, clothes, etc
at our home-based showroom in Craigieburn…
We also display our range at rock `n' roll & swing dances, classes
& festivals in Melbourne, Victoria & occasionally Interstate…
You'll be most impressed with both the quality & range of items
that you certainly “won't find in your local shopping mall”…
Not to mention our friendly & personal, efficient Aussie service…
|
We've been experiencing quite a few email
problems lately - both sending & receiving...
If you send us an email to our usual address at:
& you don't receive a timely answer,
then please try our alternative email at:

If you live in - or you're visiting Melbourne, & you're

FREE INTERNATIONAL TELEPHONE CALLS
You can talk to us at gorgeous from your computer absolutely FREE
It's just like talking over the telephone - but you don't have to pay
those horrendously expensive international phone call rates
You'll need to install a clever little freeware program called "Skype"
Once you've installed "Skype", search for us under "gorgeous-gear"
in Australia - & you can then speak to us completely FREE
You can even call people who don't have "Skype", or have a computer
Yes, it does cost you a little, but we really do mean "a little" - & it's
also considerably less than those International Phone Cards
eg: Check out the costs of a 30 minute call between Australia & the
following Countries - & the costs are the same in either direction:
USA:
|
US 62 cents
|
 |
New Zealand:
|
NZ 98 cents
|
Canada:
|
CA 72 cents
|
 |
South Africa:
|
Rand 3.8
|
United Kingdom:
|
UK 35 pence
|
 |
Japan:
|
Yen 73
|
Europe:
|
Euro 51 cents
|
 |
Singapore:
|
SG 98 cents
|
Switzerland:
|
Franc 0.80
|
 |
China:
|
Yuan 5
|
Details are on the "Skype" site - under "SkypeOut"
If you have a webcam, we can even "eyeball" while we're talking
with "Skype" video calling - & this is also completely FREE
"Skype's" PRIVATE chat function includes a conference call facility
In the course of our gorgeous business, we make many calls to our
customers right across the world - & as you can probably tell
from all this, we're absolutley rapt with "Skype"
"Skype" is a fabulous utility & so easy to use - it's saving us a "bundle"
“I knew it was over when I downloaded Skype,” Michael Powell, chairman, Federal Communications Commission, explained. “When the inventors of KaZaA are distributing for free a little program that you can use to talk to anybody else, and the quality is fantastic, and it’s free – it’s over. The world will change now inevitably.”

where "we are" - & where "you are"
