Cool! I actually recognised some of my own moves in this video-clip...
As a Dad, I quickly understood that one of my duties was to embarrass my kids at any opportunity available if I wanted to make the grade... So, showing off my "classy" dance moves in front of their friends was one of my favourite (and one of the most efficient) ways to do so.
Believe it or not, you'll never be a true Dad until you've demonstrated your dance moves in public (and preferably in front of your kids' friends)...
Unless, of course, you're a single/divorced Dad and you want to impress some of your kids' friends' Mums, that is. That's the only acceptable reason for not doing it as, for some unknown and weird reasons, the Mums don't really warm up to that kind of public display. That's also why I've stopped doing my famous dance moves in public since I've got divorced... Just in case, you know.
Of course, your kids will try to stop you doing your dance moves... they might even plead with you or (they can be crafty, when they want) give you the wrong address of where the party they're going takes place so that you don't show up there and make (in their eyes) a fool of yourself.
Don't worry too much about that, they're just jealous... They wish they could dance like you, but haven't got the guts to do it. They also know that they'll have to wait until they're parents themselves to dance like that and get away with it.
But, now, you've got a good reason to carry on dancing your way and even do so with your kids' blessing...
Yep, you could win a prize for you and your family!
There is no way they'll even think of stopping you now...
Here is what the competition's organisers say:
"The winner (that could be you... as long as you live in the Uk) and his family will be sent to spend a week in Jamaica, where the island’s infectious rhythms, music and attitude will hopefully rub off on dad.
He’ll also go into Dance Rehab and be given some individual tuition."
Don't worry too much about the "Dance Rehab" business, it's not as painful as it sounds...
"Kiss FM's Rickie Haywood-Williams will choose a winner from the ten most popular clips. Runners-up will be drawn from a Rasta hat and will receive special ipod Nanos."
Are you the Uk's Ultimate Dad Dancer?
There is only one way to find out: by entering the competiton...
Have fun!
