Once covid is nothing but a speck on the horizon obviously.

We could have cheeky Wine and picky bits.

And when you come in, they could give you a big buzzer button to be used later in the night during the live AIBU session where people take to the stage and do performed readings of their problems.

And will there be cutted up grapes?

Dugee · 22/01/2021 19:56

I'll bring a mini bottle of wine, we can all have a sniff each. Don't want to slide down the slippery slope to alcoholism now, do we?

EleanorShell · 22/01/2021 19:58

What will be the code word for those changing names after the invites are issued to prove that we have been around long enough?

SingleHandSue · 22/01/2021 19:58

Fab! I’ll ask a friend to help decorate the venue, she won’t be invited though obvs.

CoronaIsShit · 22/01/2021 19:59

Can I bring my dog? She’s really well behaved with excellent recall so doesn’t need to be on a lead. She’s very friendly so she might jump up at a few of you and she certainly won’t go for the picky bits unless she gets a bit excited which won’t be her fault. I bet tg I’ll make her do her business i

TartanTed · 22/01/2021 19:59

MIL's most definitely not invited!

I imagine there’ll be worst behaved kids. She can do her business in a corner and I’ll blame the foxes Grin.

If it's a 'working class party' I couldn't possibly come. If the host or hostess earns less than six figures and didn't go to an RG university then I'm out of there.
Picky bits and any meat products are banned. If I clock anything resembling a mcdonald product I swear I'll sue. Veggies are allowed and any sign of a towel that has been used more than once would cause me to hyperventilate and ask them if they are on glue.
Other than that, I'm in :)

WestendVBroadway · 22/01/2021 20:07

I have got some penguin bollards to stop neighbours parking in a public road outside of my house, I'll bring them along. I will go and choose an outfit now after I bring the washing in first so,it doesn't get darked on.

adjsavedmylife · 22/01/2021 20:08

For those asking about young children, they are welcome. There will be absolutely nothing provided for them, but just stick them in a puddle suit and they’ll be fine.

TheWitchCirce · 22/01/2021 20:11

Will there be pom bear?

WestendVBroadway · 22/01/2021 20:12

We need cutted up pears.

We can probably bulk the picky bits and lovely snacks out with some lentils!

Maybe we should have couple of bodyshop/juice plus/ usborne book stalls as we walk in. Everyone gets to choose a sneer or a pity glance at them as they walk in, just to get us in the spirit of things. Some of us could run past as they shout our names.

Subeccoo · 22/01/2021 20:19

I'll only come if the host is providing all the picky bits. What kind of planet do you live on where you expect guests to bring their own?

DartmoorDoughnut · 22/01/2021 20:22

I’m only coming if I can wear pjs and bring my dog and leave the DC and DH at home Wine oh and can we hold it at Chris’s place? I’m sure we were meant to be doing a party there once the horse fucked off Hmm

grassisjeweled · 22/01/2021 20:23

I'm there

VinylDetective · 22/01/2021 20:24

@Kittytheteapot

If I don't see loo brushes, I will leave a huge skid mark in the loo and say ner ner I told you so.
Don’t be ridiculous. You won’t be allowed to use the loo.
MrTrellis · 22/01/2021 20:27

I’ll bring the lemon drizzle cake on the understanding that I will pass solids in the downstairs toilet.

AnneTwackie · 22/01/2021 20:30

Boswell will escort everyone home afterwards to ensure they don’t get darked on

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 22/01/2021 20:32

Kudos, OP. A thread with humour!

No barbeques please, the smoke is anti-social and will upset the neighbours. House-thieves not welcome, especially those of the central American variety. And there better not be any dogs shitting on the lawn.

Booking in advance my 18-month appointment to have the front door opened.

Please leave quietly ...

Cuntitinthebin · 22/01/2021 20:32

I shall fashion a dress out of toilet brushes.

the80sweregreat · 22/01/2021 20:36

Any sign of anything too ' chavvy' I won't be happy. If the guests have tattoos or beards or those pjs with the zip out bottom bit , I'll have my ' resting bitch face ' on all night.

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 22/01/2021 20:43

NB. If there's no sex pond I'm not coming. I shall sit in my tiki-bar in my own back garden in a Hawaiian shirt with an umbrella in my cocktail, and sulk.

justchecking1 · 22/01/2021 20:47

Can my elderly Korean neighbour come too?
