Yes, the top-heaviness of the levels one year out doesn't surprise me. Hopefully, there will be a slew of new dancers register next year that haven't even started the activity yet!

I'm sure that in many ways, this will be an A&C convention, with the entry levels poorly represented (although of course dancers mix and match and dance ALL the levels generally, often following favorite callers, rather than stick to one hall the whole time)

I always prefer the chicken dishes to the beef ones, notwithstanding the old 'rubber chicken' stereotype.
