Hoping to pick the collective creative minds of the forum...


We've been invited to a friend's daughter's 2nd birthday party, got told it's fancy dress - thought bless will be fun excuse to dress up Bugglet, but we've now found out that hubbie & I are also exextend to dress up :-S


So... Any ideas? Bugglet is 18mths & fairly small so unlikely to fit supermarket fancy dress & am clueless about me & hubbie - trying to think along nursery rhyme/fairy tale themes but no ideas yet!

- Dracula,

- Pippi Longstocking

- Pyjama Party (in your night gown)

- go with a nice wig from wandsworth road

- Alien (green face painting)

- "Dotty" (like the exhibition from the japanese artist at tate modern with all the dots)

- harry potter

...

endless possibilities. Shall I go instead? (only joking)

enjoy

As Pam50 says, you and your husband could go in stripey tops with eye patches, headscarfs, etc as pirates....but maybe the buglet could go as a parrot!! Dress her in green and get her a little feathery headers or fascinator type thing!

Or you could get one of these and sew it onto a headband for her, dress her in green etc, or am I getting carried away?!


(not sure that my fancy dress ideas might not be a bit skewed after the 'mum dressing me as a poacher' trauma which you may remember from a thread a while ago, hahaha!)

Oooo - knew you guys'd come up trumps!! Thought & ruled out "mad men" style (annoying as have perfect dress) as thought might be bit too grown up! Liking pirate ideas esp dressing bugglet up as a parrot - though if I got the toy parrot & dressed her in brown she could go as the perch maybe!


Will let you know how it goes :-)

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
