Hi -

we have arranged a party for ds1 for september and want to do some invitations around the theme of firemen/fire engines.

He is having the use of a Fire engine complete with firemens outfits for an hour and then onto TGI Fridays for a meal.

I want to do my invitations with the fireman theme- can you offer any advice of any websites where i may find any artwork/drawing etc that may help?

I dont realy want to use Fireman Sam as a template as Ds thinks he is to old for that!!

thanks
