Is anyone here old enough to have arranged a 21st birthday party for their son/daughter?I will be soon. That is, old enough to have a 21 year old who has a birthday.


He's not particularly fussy about this sort of thing but I'd like to surprise him with something for him and his friends. I don't really know who they are apart from his best one who he knows since primary school.


There are limitations though, otherwise I'd be hiring a private jet and telling him to take his friends to where ever for the w/end.So, basically, what's cheap but not tacky? Hire of a room above a pub with a DJ for example. What costs might this incur if done locally?


As parents we would love to attend (I'm presuming my other half would) but frankly it would be his night and who wants their parents hanging around while they get pissed?


So any local area suggestions would be gratefully received.

Me neither Katie and I was one of eight. Mind you the eldest had a big do..........we were sent to stay in the hotel as we were too young. She was the only girl though.


I'm sure this thread will attract the right kind in due course...........


PS Have you tried a new thread yourself yet? It's like your life flashing before you depending what letter you put in.

Well I'm the eldest and the only girl...I missed out for sure.


I think there's loads of places to choose from around here, just give em a call about the celebration and see if they can do something that suits you?

Was at a birthday do at the black cherry which was fab, lovely nibbles and drinks and a dance floor for later!

    • Really? Yes you are probably right as I know from personal experience with Guys… as I claiming travel costs back, that no one told me I could claim! Left hand does not know what right hand is doing regarding admin..  If they charged people for wasting overstretched staff in A& E as in not urgent just might deter people from wasting precious time…. But then you need interpreters, to explain if language is a barrier and admin staff to administer..  Correct me if I am wrong but is there not a train from Denmark Hill or East Dulwich which goes to London Bridge? Would be faster than 2 buses I would have thought.    Oh, forgot about Tessa Jowell but thought you needed GP referral in which case, that would be the place to go rather than a bigger hospital. Know there is one in Beckenham and you can call and they will give you an idea as to wait time…..same I hope at TJ…assuming they answer phone.. If one really things about it…too many  people in London for example and to few hospitals…    
    • I don’t think it’s licensed for Sundays. It is licences for Fridays, but there hasn’t been anyone there on a Friday for years. So I doubt it. i think there’s a market at the Horniman on Sundays. Also pretty sure there’s one outside Herve Hill station on a Sunday.
    • I believe there is a minor injuries department at Guys, though I may have misremembered. Not very convenient for SE22 now the 40 no longer goes near. You have to get 2 buses or a train. Charging people (not sure if you mean financially or legally) would waste a lot more time, I would have thought? And  a bad bruise could be serious, depending on the cause and possibly other symptoms.
