'The Daring Dolphins and the Divebombers' is now in Waterstones Teddington
'The Daring Dolphins and the Divebombers' can now be bought in Waterstones in Teddington.
It can be seen in the window next to Beatrix Potter's 'Peter Rabbit'
I read the book to 9 classes at Hampton Wick Infant School. The children sat enthralled and afterwards asked lots of questions. I talked a little about the Blue Whale and also the Dolphins and the calls they make in the sea. The noises they make and the way they communicate is part of my story.
My book can also be bought on my web site. www.elainemaysonbooks.co.uk

HARRYS BAR IN MAYFAIR LONDON
Harrys Bar decorated and prepared for a special birthday party. Flame throwers and stilt walkers welcomed the guests. Champagne flowed as a flamenco guitarist provided music inside with a magician entertaining the children and adults as they stood around chatting.
The birthday girl wore a stunning black and white long dress by Vera Wang. All the guests were asked to wear black and white in this spectacular party.
Each of the female guests received a Chanel scarf in a box. Speeches were made by the children and husband.
The meal was provided by Harrys Bar in Italian fashion. Good service and friendly staff.
An up and coming Opera singer serenaded the party before the cakes were brought into the room.
More speeches and the disco sprang to life. A small dance floor but enthusiastic guests gyrated to a saxophonist who accompanied the disco beat. Party hats and plastic glasses were donned and Ra ra sticks waved. A good time was had by all!

Flamenco Festival 2011 Compania Aida Gomez Carmen
Superb dancing and dramatic content in an inspired peformance by Aida Gomez and her company as part of the Flamenco Festival at Sadler's Wells.
'Aida Gomez is a sizzling,sexy temptress and flirts outrageously with the officers. She flaunts her breasts in a low cut bodice with twinkling eyes and uses her skirts in a seductive manner, lifting and flicking her petticoats in the faces of the officers.'
The full review with photographs can be read in the April edition of Dance Dyanmic

Matthew Bournes Swan Lake at Sadlers Wells
Below is a taster of the review which will be published in the March edition of Dance Dynamic.
The magazine is released on the 25th of February.
A Powerful Sinister Production danced with incredible energy
Out of the mist appears a swan danced by Richard Winsor. Instantly the whole drama of the production intensifies. The swan soars into the air. Christopher realises that this swan is his salvation and feverishly runs after it. He dances with energy and total conviction. The swan moves with fluid inverted actions of his arms and feet he poses with strong lines and evil eyes. All the swans arrive in groups of three and four. They jump and twist and turn their necks letting out hissing sounds producing a menacing and powerful dance. The moon on the set shines a steely grey light on the swans upper bodies accentuating their naked torsos and their beautiful syncopation

Female Guests:
The shops are full of black clothes but don't succumb! Direct your eyes away and look in the colours. White with black trimmings look great. Red with black trimmings will be perfect for November/December Weddings. Why not try purple? No black hats, save those for funerals. If you are worried you will stray towards buying a black outfit take a friend with you to shop. Or go to a small boutique where you can get a personal service.
Snow on the ground very cold. Bring a warm shawl so that you can put this when you are walking in between shots. This will stop you looking blue.
