Right then, me hearties. Spooks and I have decided to have an enormous Halloween party this year. We are very nearly finished with the purchase of the new house, which is about three times the size of our current two bed flat, and has a lovely garden. Provided nothing goes wrong, and it's highly unlikely that it will, we'll be in in about a month or so. The house is semi-detached, so we'll be able to make a lot of noise, and I figure we can offer to put up around twenty people, maybe more, in varying degrees of comfort.
Warning: we do not intend to go to bed until sometime around Saturday evening, and I personally would like to skip Saturday entirely and collapse sometime on Sunday morning.
Fancy dress is mandatory, ie you don't get your foot through the door unless you've made some kind of effort to join in. Halloween or horror fancy dress only, the more creative the better. Should there be enough people there to make it worth doing, there will be prizes - a bottle of champagne goes to the winner of the Best Costume award, a tub of Marmite for the Worst Costume award. Originally I wanted to suggest that any and all Barbelith peeps attending all dressed up as zombie pirates in honour of Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl, but spooks vetoed this, saying it's more fun if everyone gets to choose their own costume, rather than being all homogenous and stuff. I'm sure there'll be enough pirates there anyway...
Bring your own booze, naturally, and anything else you'd like. It's quite a ways off just yet, and we've not actually finished buying the place yet, so this could be slightly premature, but what the hell... |
