Well done Bri4n with the pop quiz

Thanks for the hospitality Tiny and Karen, even more so for the chocolates. Very kind but you didn't need to

Great night, great music - can still hear it in Chelmsford

Cheers Karen & George.

Another top evening, we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, thank you.
The outfits where brilliant, as i'm sure the the pics will show.
Bit worrying how some people just looked so a home in their fancy dress, Big Daddy Cool, Wilf Halen, Brian that was so you!
Tiny with hair!
Budgie managing to resist the normal urge to dress as his hero Richard Fairbrass, was the 70's Diso Deva Medallion Man

Cheers again

The YUM's

Another fantastic night at ESC HQ. We had a blast, thanks.

Well done to Karen for all your hard preparation work. And to George for the pop quiz.
(Don't know where you got some of those questions from though? "Who had a hit with If you Leave? I would hardly call number 48 in the charts, a hit)

Like Neil has said, some great outfits and worryingly well suited, most of them, too.

Now for some pics......





Wham re-union










The Sheep Pen




You're Soooo photogenic, Lin.






















SirFozz - He Came, He saw, He kicked it's little green ***....






Grifter Boy


Quizmeister George


Hmmmm


At that point I thought I'd better put the camera away.

Mmmmmmm oh, yeah
What a night

Oh, yes, it's Karen's night
And the feeling's right
Oh, yes, it's Karen's night
Oh, what a night
(Oh, what a night)

For those that WERN'T cheating in the music quiz they'll know this is Kool & The Gang!!

Flocking Hell - what a night!! We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it - thanks Karen & George, great party, great company and some fantastic costumes!

No doubt some fairly sore heads too (yes, me included) but hopefully Shain has learnt to walk & talk again??

When's the next one..................?

As always Brian, some cracking photos, just about to have a flick through mine!!

It was great to see every single one of you enjoying yourselves , i have just emptied 4 dustbins filled to the brim with empty can's , bottles !!

STI-CKI on the chicken kebabs @ 2am was awesome , then how brave was she to get in the tub with all of us commando Then to be followed by Lady Jane

Awesome , awesome , fantastic night & deff worth all the agro getting all set up & put away , the garden is now back to normal

Massive thanks to all of you who all helped us out last night , be it cooking , tidying away , & generally helping Karen & i , we love you all & this is what the ESC Is really all about

Loved doing the quiz Just browsing through the answer papers now & cannot believe how close it was

Thanks Karen & Tiny for yet another fab party at ESC HQ, we all thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

It was great to see everyone dressed up and really getting into the spirit of things. Fantastic photo's as usual Bri.

Thanks to Paula for picking me as part of her Naughty Forties team. Even though we did come last it was still good fun.

I hope you enjoyed the evening as much as we all did Karen. When's the next party planned for guys?

As Tiny said thank you all so much for a cracking day/night.

Was so funny to see everyone walk in in their outfits, had to look twice at a few of you.

Again thanks to Milamber and Brian for the music, Tiny getting the garden looking so good for the party and for the quiz. (still have the winners wine here), Brian aswell for the pic how funny are they. And for everyone dressed up to their 9's even the kids looked great, well done Mason for the best dressed. (Adam Ant) You looked great even if you dont know who he is lol. Thank you all for the lovely pressies too. You really didnt have to.

Shain has now recovered (just) learning curve I think.

Finished tidying up at 4pm this afternoon and then had a little sleepy lol.

Thanks so much everyone what a wicked 40th birthday.

Just shows you how a little car club can bring people (friends) together and have the times of their lives.

What a fantastic SURPRISE PARTY, At least this one wasnt spoiled.

Love you all

Karen xxxxx
