[HUGH]

Colin,

It's been in vogue for at least 5 years, when our oldest granddaughter attended one.  We were at the preliminaries to our grandson's the other day at his high school.  Free drinks, non-alcoholic and semi-alcoholic, much appreciated by the mums and dads and others, and a speech by the head teacher.  Hordes of girls dressed like film stars, and suave young men in dinner suits and Highland dress awaiting the buses to take them to Glasgow and a function suite at Hampden Park.  My high school dance wasn't like that.  It was in the school gym, with wall decorations painted by the art department - I did a sax player.  I didn't go - dance with a girl????  In those days that was a sure sign of a cissie. The punishment in class for a grave misdemeanour was to sit beside a girl. I left at 15.

Hugh.
