We are going to a Christmas Party!

Bath attendents. I prefer to have someone on hand to 'draw my bath'
And be on hand with the bubbles (champagne of course!)

Cava (i think Lord and Lady R are a tad hard up)

Draught excluders - well, it is a castle.

Enduring friendships forged at the Castle

Frothy coffee and hot chocolate (with cream and marshmallows, yum).

Just popped in to say.....get in your cars ladies, it's the big day today and luncheon awaits you after your long drive. We are so excited here, can hardly wait to meet you all,Lord Roses and myself and our two elderly but over excited labradors ( they love greeting guests) will be out on the steps of Rosesarered Towers( to avoid any unnecessary slobbering I will keep Lord Roses on a tight leash.)
LET THE FUN BEGIN.????

On my way won't be long.....

Just changing into the tiara and posh frock and I'll be there ?

Galloping along in my coach and four.

Be there soon - realised I need a very glamorous frock for such a classy 'do' but it must have an elastic waist band. I need to be comfortable after eating and drinking all the wonderful fare........!!

Oops forgot to ask
Do you have a helicopter pad?
If not don't worry will get the Broomstick out.

Look forward to meeting your Ladyshipness

Hair already done ( think we slightly out of kilter with our ABC.?). Oh maybe that was Cherry's helicopter pad enquiry.

Ok then

I'm all set to go, glammed up for the off

(Where are we up to - J? )

Jaffa cakes

Kilts, for anyone from north of the border. Or would that be bad etiquette? I'm an ignorant Southerner so have no idea, but I do like a man in a kilt. Given the coldness of the castle, don't think any Scots men should go Commando though!

Leaving the main road now - wow just how long is your drive?

Miles long nanaK54

Nearly there

Sorry, muddled it before . A bear of little brain am I.

Oh dear... still stuck on the M25, and I was so looking forward to it.

Perfect, everything is just perfect here, you must have worked so hard preparing for this bash Lord and Lady roses......just a little concerned that the elephant is still on the loose somewhere.....

Quick quick slow. (Is that a foxtrot?)

Rosesarered Towers in sight now,nearly there

So happy... got here in the end! Wow, what a party and the night is still young!

Trumpeting, did you hear that? I fear that elephant is quite close.....

Ukelele playing, not a trumpet. Our Gransnet grandad is a talented player.

Violins now, the orchestra is tuning up
