The Social Daunce Irregulars Victorian Grand Ball June 2009 - the 1st of many I hope to attend...was not only a worthwhile tradition to carry on but one that was fun and brought to light many of the very kind customs and social amenities men and woman made time to afford one another....may they always continue....GP "Alexia" Reilly
