I am now of sufficient age to officially join Gransnet; I of course await my laminated membership card; car sticker; an copy of the much loved Talk Guidelines
Said party will be held at Tarn Castle, located on the southern shore of Loch Ness; or if not, at The Panther, located just down the road, opposite the hairdressers. (Both premises are dog friendly, many of you will be glad to hear ?)
Bring Your Own Bottle (the hallmark of a good booze up); squeeze of your choice ; and, of course Fancy Dress is mandatory!
So, crucially, what will you be wearing and who will you bringing? (I am not imposing a no-pressie policy btw)
I haven’t quite decided yet… (Do you remember when you used to talk endlessly with your best mate about what you were going to wear on a night out?)
Happy Birthday Fanny! Am I allowed to cheat and come to the party, please? I had to go to a family funeral on my real birthday. I don't know who I'd bring, but I can provide some of my legendary Nourishing Soup to restore guests when they are flagging a bit!
Happy Birthday Fanny, I’ve been racking my brain trying to work out what this illustrious age can be but I guess it means that you’re over 30 at last. Both Dd1 and her husband have birthdays this week so it’s obviously a very good time of year for good people to be born! If I can’t borrow a very warm coat I’ll send you some sun instead as that garden which looks fabulous might need warming up this time of year. Enjoy your special day. ??
Happy Birthday Fanny, love reading your posts. How wonderful to have a birthday party, in these covid times. I was wondering if I could bring a male person as my plus 1 ?He is suddenly relieved of his diary appointments for the rest of the forseeable, his name is Boris, what do you think?
Fanny Happy Birthday ? ??? How lovely to be invited to your party. I am on my way. I did want to bring Thor, the barman from the Argy but unfortunately our llama Alarma (little madam) got wind of it and insisted in coming with me. We are bringing poteen I am wearing tartan. Will be with you as soon as my broomstick has landed.
Belated Birthday Greeting Fanny don’t know why this didn’t pop up yesterday.
I’m still on my way up to you, will the party still be going? Hopefully it’s a 3 day (at least) bash, cos I’m bringing my insulated yurt and the stove is proving to be difficult to carry.
Hitch hiking isn’t much fun when your old……and the bottles I’m bringing do tend to clank a bit.
