Bon Bon - 2008 style

A very enjoyable night out, I must say!

What an evening, and what a great turnout we had? At least 70 people of all ages joined us this year, and most managed to last the pace from start to finish. Dancing for 3 whole hours is a big ask - and I'm sure there are some aches and pains being felt today?

I can't remember where we went! I know we ended up in front of Parco for the second year running; we avoided the graveyard = the top of eki-mai. The length of Ise-machi, and the crowds along Hon-machi dori, and we had a few moments of glory in front of the main stand outside 82 bank. Think our big hands were well photographed again (makes us look tall & shiney), and our super cheerful young brigade did us all proud.

Anna & Hina-chan led us along smartly, and Eri's tennis buddies once again led the choreography with a lot of help from Tomohiro & Yumie; Tomoko & Yuki kept us supplied with refreshments and made sure the glamourous team behind us didn't trample us!

As you can see from the photos everyone had a great time. Thanks everyone for coming & joining us/supporting us; please share your photos & comments here too?

Bon Bon - open invitation

Oh yes, it's that time of year again already!

I know, I know. You don't like dancing. Have to admit most of us not so keen either! However, we always have a great time on Bon Bon nights. Our secret for success? Essential ingredients are:

1. lots of energy
2. lots of smiles
3. lots of beer

Everyone is welcome to join us; we need to know how many family/friends you want to bring with you by the end of the month (25th) please.

You'll need white T-shirts (we'll supply you with iron on transfers). We do not know our starting place yet, but we will meet at 5:45 - August 2nd.

You do not have to stay until the 9pm finish if you don't want to - it's a long evening for little kids we know. Join us for the start & leave when you get tired? If you 'have' to be in another group, escape & join us later?!

Don't be shy - come and meet old friends, and make new ones. I guarantee you will enjoy yourself, even if you hate the song, can't dance and don't know anyone! Go on, you know you want to!

Copy this form & print it, or call Yuki 0263-34-4481 & she'll email or fax you one. Do it now!
