Secretary Ellie Coles, 34, waggles her head, sways her legs and punches the air in the clip set to Abba's Dancing Queen -- which has been viewed more than 380,000 times on YouTube. Her daily performances waiting for the bus home from work cheered up locals and the effect now appears to have gone global. Jane Rowland, 45 - whose partner filmed it - owns a cafe opposite the bus stop in Eastleigh, Hampshire.She said: 'Everyone around here knows about her and drivers beep their appreciation for her moves as they go past. 'She has no problems dancing away and is an inspiration to us all. 'People watching it in America have said it's been the first thing to make them smile after the horrendous attack in Boston at the weekend.' Miss Coles revealed she is dancing to Knock Down by Britain's Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon in the film which is titled Eastleigh's Got Talent and has received 69,700 'likes' on Facebook. She finger points, waves her hands in circles, and seems to keep time with the Abba song dubbed over the clip.Before the bus arrives she produces a downward karate-style punch before flagging it down with a small flourish at the end of her routine. Miss Coles, from Southampton - who has now met her fan Mrs Rowland - said: 'I have my headphones in every day on the way back from work and I just can't help myself - I just dance. 'My mum thinks I'm bonkers. But I'm a normal 34-year-old woman who just loves to dance.' Mrs Rowland's partner Nigel Baker, a former DJ, said more than a quarter of a million people watched the video within minutes of it being uploaded.
