- Kirton, Devon.
Just recieved an invite for aneighbour/friends 40th Birtday party at the bar/function room of the local Athletics club. Fine. Then the invites reads that it's bloody fancy-dress, 70's style. Well whoopy-do. Frankly I can't be arsed to either ferret around the charity shop or go hire something. I'm a 45 y/o miserable bastard who frankly doesnt see the attraction in going out dressed like a prat and hanging-out with other similarly dressed forty somethings. In my youth, fimne, especially the more risque themes, but now? Why?
Recently we were invited to a pals 50th on a river boat, black tie... 2 special trips into Oxford for hire and return of suit, cost of hire, cost of decent prezzie. It was F'in cold on the boat and we nearly froze to death.
In the past I've been dragged along to Masonic Ladies Nights/Charity do's (Father in law, V. big on Masonics) again, hire of suit etc. Would have been better just to send the cost to a charity and stayed at home.
Anybody got any flares... 36" waist, 32" inside leg?
