Zombie has her hospital bed so the Phalanx had a sleep over.

They did a very good job of tidying up after themselves. Who knows what they will get up to next though? Why not join us and find out?

Signing up for the Gutter Trip - er, Iceland. As am in a wine village will bring several dozen bottles of Sekt, German sparkling wine for the flight. Vastly underrated & perfect at any time of day.

Love the idea of a weekend houseparty. Will wear a silk dress & make cocktails for all Or v glam cigarette trousers & be barefoot. Don't like shoes.

Can we have a murder like in Poirot? Some pompous arse & we're all terribly clever & solve the mystery.

(Hearts yes, he's German)

Virtual booze did you say?? I'm in!

the only booze I can manage these days is the virtual sort, I've turned into a real lightweight

That ironic, what with your NN, Ginslinger

It IS a bit early for for me, virtual or not.

I Know but I can't be bothered to name change - maybe I should be exginslinger - I do drink wine with meals and have the odd glass of fizz but really can't cope with much more than that - not completely teetotal.

I'll join you in a

Actually, I am about to change me mind.

I am taking 3 DSs to IKEA this morning....
I think I need all the performance enhancing substances I can get

I'm confused? Is house party this weekend? When is Iceland trip? Or is it houseparty then on to Iceland? I don't know what to pack except knitting n wine! 🤗🤗

BBB I will come on your Icelandic trip, and I will also attend the house party. Is that today, I will have to get a move on as I have several things to do, I hope someone will provide Pernod or I can bring my own.

Pacific good luck. I can offer you a virtual happy pill. You might fall asleep and miss the tri

Ahem

Miss the trip so it's a win win.

Started early, Unborn??

Bewitched I'm in... here you go... I may have opened it already though oops. Too early? Somewhere in the world it's night time right?

The sun is always over the yardarm somewhere.

I'm up for a house party. I have this little number. I look fatter more Rubenesque than the moggle in the picture though.

Ooooh! A real British house party? Like Downton Abbey? Will there be butlers and things? No?😞

But there will be booze and laughter and silly stories and sharing food won't there? Yes!!!😄

I'm in! I can bring the Wintergreen Schnapps, and some good BBQ. And a Macadamia Nut Pie for dessert.

I'm getting my nails done as we speak, I shall be looking very glamorous this evening. What? Hobgoblin toes aren't fashionable? Well fuck.

Loving the dress iklboo! And a houseparty like downtown abbey I'm saying yes to that!! I'll just nip out to the garden to shoot some grouse to go with gin, vodka, wine etc. We can push our lady zombie out into the grounds in her lovely bed and she can wear her tiara 👸 better make it next weekend cos I'm just getting my knitting out. Ps when I've shot the grouse of course!! 😘😘

Cozie I believe my morning medication could knock out a horse

Put me down for designated driver duties. I shall only be a bit jealous you gin soaked vipers.

Fabulous frock ikl!

House party eh?
Afternoon tea will be served in the Orangery from 4 oclock.
Champagne cocktails to be served in the Blue Drawing Room from 6:30pm.

When If the house party winds down, Zombie would quite fancy a cruise. Norwegian Fjords and hope for the Northern Lights? The Med is too cold this time of year. I guess that leaves Mardeira and the Canary Islands.

Decisions, decisions...

Reporting back. Ow my head. You will be relieved to hear that norks stayed firmly encased in bra under 2 jumpers it was minus 10 here last night but it was a great night. Turns out it was only 3 of us but lots of chat and laughter and swearing and booze. Highest of accolades, they could be MNers, even Phalanx members.

I will need a Bloody Caesar to recover if I am to join the house party. Hair of the dog and all that.

Roses very glad to hear your update, hope DD continues on her upward trajectory. You take such good care of her.

BBB put me on the Iceland list!

Zombie I love cruises. The Caribbean is nice this time of year, or is that too far? When DDad was still alive and mobile we all (10 of us, me and my family, DBro and his plus DPs) went on a Disney Cruise. It was fab.

Do we have a date?

What on earth makes you think the party will stop when we're on board?

Pot hands or feet? I love a pedicure, it's my pampering event of choice.

ikl that dress is gorgeous and I bet you look gorgeous in it.

AllAlone maybe we could have cards in the small library after dinner?
And Susie I can help with the grouse.
AcrossThe Pond macadamia nut pie sounds DIVINE!!!

Ok girlies!! When house party winds down looks like we are off on a 🚢 zombie wants Norwegian fjords so that's where we're off!! Please pack appropriate clothing! Don't forget to take swimwear in case we get lost! 😳
