To have started a Candy Flashmob in the pub!

I may have had one too many vinos but I still think this was a VAIR good idea!

Candy by Cameo come on the speakers at the pub and I the wine convinced myself it was an excellent idea to start doing the dance.

I dragged everyone possible up (including strangers Grin) until about 30 of us were busting a move, until DP got too embarrassed by my dancing and told me through gritted teeth to 'sit down you silly cow.'

I have no regrets, but was IBU?

I know I wasn't Grin

Well, did every one join in, with gusto, like the 'Bend and snap' scene in Legally blonde?
Or did every one look mortified, shuffle about and slope off to their seats whilst muttering about the crazy dancing lady?
I'm hoping it was the former for you!

A1 - the were all just as enthusiastic as me Grin

Very reasonable. Not enough people know the dance! It's not a party without it in my opinion WinkGrin

Mookie81 · 16/02/2018 21:37

My hubby wants to learn the moves so he can do it with me!

A1Sharon · 16/02/2018 21:38

Oh my gosh! Just watched the Cameo Candy video-80s tastic!!Grin

HarshingMyMellow · 16/02/2018 21:40

Mookie - I'm glad you agree!!
I'm shocked by the amount of people who got up and just stumbled along in the line! They soon picked it up (after a few squashed toes anyway.)

I say chuck DH in the deep end Grin

I'd have been confused, still not sure what you are talking about

RoidsOfDoom · 16/02/2018 21:50

Vu to call you you a stupid cow.

RoidsOfDoom · 16/02/2018 21:50

Sorry - silly cow

HarshingMyMellow · 16/02/2018 22:17

Roids - it wasn't said with malice, more a drunken term of endearment.

No idea what Candy by Cameo is but I'd have been exactly the same if Agadoo, The Conga or Superman had come on Grin
So YADNBU.

AngeloMysterioso · 16/02/2018 22:49

Ah I love the Candy dance- wish I’d been there!

HarshingMyMellow · 17/02/2018 10:04

Dreamy - I'm first up for all of those too! Drunk or sober Grin

~runs off to check youtube~

Seems 'Candy' completely passed me by. 'Word Up' is a tune though!

Alloftheboys · 17/02/2018 10:25

I had to YouTube as had no idea what this was.
I would say YWBVU unless you were wearing the red codpiece and kinky boots from the video Grin
