IT’S TIME TO START THINKING ABOUT THOSE REGAL ROBES
We want everyone to dress up for the party! As a curtsey in the direction of a certain jubilee, the theme is ‘ROYALTY’ so let you imagination run riot: cruel king or gay queen; prince of darkness or pretty princess; crown, sceptre, frog or courtier; corgi, flunky or right royal rascal; court jester or Roman emperor; lion, unicorn or bold crusader; or Queen of Hearts ,or stolen tarts. But as usual, anything goes and if you want to do your own thing, don’t let us get in your way. There will be a cat walk show in the Venus Flytrap Palais on the Saturday afternoon and prizes for the best costumes across a range of categories. But more than anything, you make it such a party if you put on the style.
