Charlie Chalk's Fun Factory if that is still around.Soph K wrote:My birthday is more or less exactly in the middle of august if you didn't already know.
Anyone got any SENSIBLE, COOL, FUN ideas for my party?
I misread that at first. I thought you were suggesting a Larsenesque party. But it might rain outside.Ian Volante wrote:Parties should never be sensible. How about good old Laserquest?
No but if I just said "Any party ideas?", knowing you lot, most of you would say "Ooh I know! A teletubbies party!" or something.Ian Volante wrote:Parties should never be sensible. How about good old Laserquest?

Laserquest is too boyish.
Okay then, how about a Barbie and make-up party?NO WAY! I mean, firstly, Barbies are for 5 year olds. Secondly, make up is cool and I like it, but who'd want to spend a whole day doing make up? ... No one!Ian Volante wrote:I have the unfortunate affliction of being a boy, it tends to skew my responsesSoph K wrote:No but if I just said "Any party ideas?", knowing you lot, most of you would say "Ooh I know!

You obviously need to define your criteria more clearly!Okay then, if you're going for more teenage pursuits, maybe you should steal some booze and spend the day (or ten minutes) getting very drunk. I'm sure you're old enough for that.Soph K wrote:NO WAY! I mean, firstly, Barbies are for 5 year olds. Secondly, make up is cool and I like it, but who'd want to spend a whole day doing make up? ...

Back OT: Happy birthday series 47 champion Chris Wills.
It is Series 62 semi-finalist Craig Chittenden's 24th today, so he's exactly 1 day younger than me.David Barnard wrote:It was James' birthday yesterday so is it anyone's turn today?

I would do this, but it would take a year to get it all off c4c and not everyone's on that anyway.David Barnard wrote:An interesting task (for those of you that have the time or inclination) would be to make a calendar of countdowner's or forumites birthdays, I am December 7th if anyone wants to do it, I know that I can't be bothered too though
Isn't that what already exists? You enter your birthday, the forum tells you if there's a birthday today.David Barnard wrote:An interesting task (for those of you that have the time or inclination) would be to make a calendar of countdowner's or forumites birthdays, I am December 7th if anyone wants to do it, I know that I can't be bothered too though
Yeah, but he wants to see it as a calendar so you can see stuff in advance rather than just on the day.Ryan Taylor wrote:Isn't that what already exists?
