What fun this party is actually in the kitchen as I'm always to be found in the kitchen at parties usually elbow deep in suds washing all the glasses. I've brought my pink rubber gloves complete with the fur cuffs and the elegant ring on the middle finger specially for the occasion. However I've partaken of far too much red wine and have knocked several of the glasses off the draining board so please tread/dance carefully until I can bend down to get the shards into the dustpan without falling over!
I hope Mr & Mrs Corner have both popped in to share in the celebrations as 50 years is a great achievement.
Ann you also deserve a glass of something to celebrate your good news.
Soop good luck for tomorrow 
Oh dear the room is spinning a little now so I might have to leave the glasses until tomorrow. I have a friend coming in the morning I've not seen in years so I'll get them done before she arrives - I do hope she's not expecting cake - we appear to have eaten it all!

The last word on today’s party in the kitchen
(A nice change from some of the grumbling and whingeing elsewhere)
Now, whose birthday is it next?
Good luck Soop I hope somebody will have cleared up (as opposed to cleared off) before you get back. Safe journey!
Wow! That was some party! Thanks panache, Mr and Mrs C and everyone who just wanted a reason to let their hair down. I don't remember going home but was in my own bed when I woke up this morning so that's alright
soop safe journeys and I hope your day goes well.
ann good news indeed. I'm sure 99% of getting a benefit is in using the same language on the forms as the 'social' learn when doing their qualifications 
Hope you all have a good day. The sun is shining in a blue sky here and I just spotted a solitary flower on the apple tree 
Just staggering out of bed! What happened to this morning ? and why is my head so ...... Ah. Just read previous posts. Don't remember much after bringing in comestibles when someone gave me a v large glass of red! Oh dear1 Do I have to apologise to anyone? If so I am very sorry. It must have been the vodka jelly - me being an abstemious type!
Still Lent tomorrow so I shall do penance !
Thinking of you today Soop. Onward and upward!
My word is this really the day after?
And why have I a feather boa tied to my legs I ask, and yes in all my 80 years that was a party to beat all that went on before......................a massive thank you to Soop and each one of you that contributed to make this party swing!!!
Yes I do half remember swinging whilst on the table and I certainly have the aches to prove it today!!!
I thought I would make a start in clearing up the absolute devastating state of our kitchen........only to find friends already up to their elbows in suds, and feather dusters reaching high and low!! Perhaps I shall be the scrubber?!
After the mayhem,joy and uplift comes the day after, and of course our thoughts turn to those again that are hurting and finding life so difficult,especially Soop for all her bravado, it is not the best few weeks in her life,or that of our Macsporran and I am very aware of this.
I hope you find some peace of mind later Kitty as you really had just about enough of certain folk last night.............most understandable indeed.
Again it was lovely hearing your upbeat news Ann after what has been a mammoth traumatic time, and so hopefully, for all of you facing hardship you will be uplifted by the fact that, in turn, we all get a leg up and lets hope it will be yours very soon.
Thinking very much of you Synonymous and what is ahead for your dear man,no small matter and it does drain your very being.
So although I did my best to join in the spirit of a party yesterday I too have to knuckle down this day,and start preparing ...........hopefully for my dear man`s homecoming.He faces a barrage of scans etc this day.
Still feeling woozy and I think the foods as well as the drinks have caused my inners much mischief....................but hey!! who cares?!.......It was a smashing party and one long to be remembered.
Thanks to my lovely GN friends and Soop`s Kitchen.
Simply the best!!!
Honey Beagle and I need a quiet day today......but the roofers are coming. ?
I catch them all the time, Galen - and twig fish, and weed fish.......?. Don’t discourage the boy - he’ll move on to bigger and better things!
Hmm, perversely pleased that I'm not the only one suffering self-inflicted aches today but boy, it was definitely worth it Glad you enjoyed the party Panache
To Charleygirl and Nannytopsy what happens beneath my duvet stays beneath my duvet although those Butlers in the Buff certainly tickled my fancy with their feather dusters ... 
Must dash, I hear another cup of coffee calling me. I've left some ginger biscuits by the kettle, ginger is good for troubled tums I believe.
