Okay, I've not said anything since the
first announcement, but I'm having a party tomorrow.
It is to celebrate 10 years in Manchester - I arrived as a tallow student
* in Autumn 1996 and they haven't managed to get rid of me yet. This also marks a decade of knowing many of my good friends, as I met them through WARPED and LARS (university sci-fi and LRP societies, respectively) in the first few weeks of term. I love you all.
Costume is optional. It is perhaps worth clarifying that it is
costume that is optional, not
clothing. Come dressed as something I like, and if I've got something related to it on DVD we may watch it. Or we may not - it's not explicitly a TV party. Turn up for music, video, light conversation and copious quantities of alcohol. Bring your own alcohol.
Anyway, I mention it now mostly to provide
( directions )Those who have visited Chez Bennée before may be somewhat thrown that the door has changed; it is no longer green, it is now white and has no number. I include a photograph of the new door under the cut, for reasons of visual recognition.
( Door Number 2 )If anyone's still confused, let me know.
Doors will be open from about 7.30 onwards, there is a reasonable amount of crash space (a bed or two, a few mattresses and a couple of Budda Bags for the brave). See you there!
* Callow. CALLOW.
