davenewellhome Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Next weekend our son is taking his girlfriend up to a log cabin in Snowdonia for her birthday (romantic little twonk aint he?) so we've got the house to ourselves. I suggested last night to SWMBLT (She Who Must Be Listened To) that we could have a party next Saturday for our little gang of local friends to which she replied "its too early for Christmas parties". So my question to you all is, is it ever too early to party? D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J9withdogs Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Make sure the webcam's wired up at home so we can all enjoy the party too. It doesn't have to be a Christmas party - the 4th Yucatan Bird Festival starts next Saturday, you could celebrate that ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGD Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Dave - of course not. Sometimes it's too late to party. But never too early. Live for NOW, 'cos you never know what's round the next corner; so just do it matey! Pay my flights, and I'll do the Live Music Show for ya! :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Jones Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 About 30 years ago I remember a book called "Today's the Day," packed full of pointless anniversaries (eg "invention of Wellington Boot"), some for each day of the year. I suppose it's out of print now, but it'd certainly provide the excuses some of you seem to need for a party whenever you want one! Incidentally, around here one thing they don't need an excuse for is setting off fireworks - it happens quite randomly, all year round.

Perhaps next year and I'll hire a hall as ours is only a small house and we can't fit everyone in :-D D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingpete Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Any trime is party time. (lol) WE ( 9 of us) had a great party last night. Good hotel in Maidstone, really helpful management, wonderful meal, plenty of good wines to selct from list, after dinner drinks flowed well. B-) Spent hours, chatting about where we had been this year and plans for the next. Photos circulated as reminders and discussions on the merits of numerous places to recommend. (^) Adjourned to bed at about mindnight. Slept well. Breakfast found us commenting on the enjoyment of being togerther the previous evening, and promisiing to do it again, elsewhere. OK, no dancing ot party games, but nevertheless, a party of fun filled moments in good company with no direct criticsms of anyone we have met in past years. Convivial ? *-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clive Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 "Next weekend our son is taking his girlfriend up to a log cabin in Snowdonia for her birthday". My son never let me know if he got up to anything like that - not until they were married though. Do we all bring a bottle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Syd Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 We party whenever the mood takes us, haveing several parties a year Tuesday night is the next one when we switch on the Christmas lights. Only a small affair this time though, so far, the boss has invited about 20/25 people. We have two patio heaters going and two table top heaters, maybe a gazebo up too Lee has invited two of the lovely barmaids that he fancies from our local. Jan does a great soup served in large cups, hot meat and gravy in buns plus all the usual buffet stuff. Loads of drinks available Usually lasts until after midnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
