Getting Jiggy at "The Palais"



Some days it's just so difficult to get the staff to stay focused....




If only they were as energetic in their employ Dhaarlings...

  2. You may need to switch the Palais coffee to decaf.

  3. Dear Xl

    I'm glad that you are only trying to imagine them Dancing...

    Dear Hayward

    Good idea...It's either that or start lacing the water with Valium....

  4. What a fun clip! Great dancing!

    Perhaps you ought to tie some feather dusters to the workers' shoes. At least then they'll get some dusting done as they're twirling about.

    Sounds like the flying monkeys are still at CyberPetras celebrating his election to covendom... Instead of helping you with your dusting....

    The speed of some of the flips and footwork look downright dangerous.

    I went to a jazz club regularly and there were a few WW2 veteran couples that were now in their 70's still dancing away like in this clip... only not quite as fast or as atheletic but... while I would sit watching them on the dancefloor still cutting some fast moves.... I would try to imagine them as they might have been back in the day....They still had the moves...the attitude and the spirit for life... I t was so wonderful to see.
