Name: Tony Dann Comments: My great uncle was the ballroom dancing teacher, Maurice Jay. I never knew him personally but during the last three years I have researched the family tree and discovered quite a bit of information about him. Via the internet I managed to track down a technical ballroom dancing book he wrote in 1962. I ordered a copy from Australia! I would really like to be able to discover more about Maurice's professional life. Does anyone know any dancers who were taught by Maurice? Or can you recommend any other sources of information?

Name: Julie Lloyd-Johnson Comments: Hi, I have just found this - great idea. The website is great - I have visited B4 but not signed in here. I have been a member for about 30yrs and still think Natd is great. If anyone knows of a school for sale in London area pref. s or n. I'd love to know as thinking of moving with my daughter Alison Fairweather. (even better if you fancy a swap with Northampton).

Name: David Mark Anthony Comments: Great to have the return, of your news booklet, now renamed the National News, an excellent source of information. Request please, can you return to the original idea, of printing names of successful professional candidates, with the inclusion of their respective area's. This would be very helpful to identify who is who from where. Your present system could result in mistaken identity, and open to possible fraudulent use, in the duplication of names.
