they walked and stood the right beside us. the honour was notjust the fact we were dancing for her but because we were in such close proximity, we werejust dancing, she was watching, she had questions, she was asking about it, she stood there looking at us. did it make you nervous? what effect did have? it made us all more more joyous, not that we were not but you could feel the tempo had increased, nobody was nervous. it was the experience of a lifetime and something we have carried, notjust in the last ten years but something we will share for generations to come in ourfamily. it was a sense ofjoy. to come in ourfamily. did you get a chance to speak to either of the royal couple? yes, we did. the queen did not speak to us, but prince philip did stop and he spoke to a few of us, talking to us about our dresses, how lovely the colours were, how vibrant the colours were, he spoke about our dance and how we knew it and how long we practised. it was just such a humble experience
