Now it is well known that Wednesday afternoons are just rubbish if you are at work.
So I’ve decided well in advance to have a little get together round my gaff for the cognoscenti (remember what colour shreddies to have now).
Except Franz my old German neighbour who didn’t understand eating in company…
It’s dead easy to get to, just look out for the coffee cups… Early start, say 15.30?
Requirements: A bottle of something alcoholic - I’ll leave the choice to you my dears. If someone could bring some ice and amusingly shaped fruit even better. 
Oh and maybe Chauncey could bring his WIlliam Shattner LP collection?
Now I have a small kitchen but it’s open plan to the lounge so I think we can squeeze a good few in. 
And, yes, LaNut can have a tour of the bathroom complete with roll-top.
Right I’m off to make cheese based snacks on sticks and check the wine rack…

I will be travelling from Hong Kong to Guangzhou by train, but will order the driver to make a detour via the Trans-Siberian Railway and hope to pop in. No way am I missing cheese-based snacks!

With a wing and a prayer, I shall gather.
Guess that makes me half an angel.
Shall I put the flatmate’s chair on the Trans-Siberian for the return journey?

Good, thank you.
Did a lightning raid on High Street Ken and managed to get not one, not two but three pairs of jeans that I liked, were not Earl priced and that fitted. Not easy when you are small of height and wallet.

We can share my secret prosecco stash. if you are bringing sorbetto al limone we can make sgroppino. It would be a sin not to.
Maybe Daxy can bring some indoor fireworks from his Chinese escapade?

Yup, I can bring a few crates - um, indoor you say . . . well, maybe if you have a kitchen like the Millennium Stadium made out of asbestos . . .
couldn’t we just bury your flatmate in the ground, head first, and simply insert the fireworks in his bottom before lighting the blue touch paper …

That’s the spirit Daxy… I do have a biggish kitchen but I think that may be pushing it.
Sgroppino it is then Stylish.
Anyone got any good party games we can do? Besides the flour game of course. Oh I think I might fill the roll-top with alcoholic fruit to bob for - La Nut mike like that.

Urban Outfitters isn’t cheap! Erm … is it? Didn’t used to be. I saw a fab teeshirt in there around Christmas time - a v subtle black-on-green silhouette-type screenprint - which turned out to be Satan pushing Jesus in a shopping trolley.
