I’ll try and make it :party:
This sound like a good one,thanks for the offer,are kids welcome too and hubby myself and a few friends from jap girls would love to come to this one…
Just back from the sherburn meet would it be ok for other jap clubs to come and join in your 40th bash?
Can’t wait Ian, sorry I forgot to mention that a birthday party is standard practise when the Chairman hits 40. In my case it was my 35 as yet to hit 40. It was a great night and the damage to the house wasn’t that bad.

Happy Birthday mate…you have PM!!
Mark
Happy birthday Ian–hope you have a good one 
Many thanks for the invite–me and 'er indoors are really looking forward to meeting you, your good lady and all the other members we have’nt met as yet due to clashes in our social life that has caused us to miss previous events–but this party sounds like one definately not to miss 8) 8) 8)
Look forward to receiving details soon
We’re contemplating bringing some of the locals up for the party. If anyone remembers Brian across the road, who looks like a cross between Paddington bear and Worzel Gummidge, well it’s his family.
Brian has promised to let his missus use the teeth for the event but can’t assure me that the ‘pets’ that inhabit his coat will not come along too. If this causes any problems for anyone, you can get frontline in an aerosol nowadays so it won’t be too bad.
The downside for Ian is that the family does eat quite alot of food, you would too if you had the luxury of six digits per hand. Brian’s party trick is picking his nose whilst rolling a cigarette, all with one hand, absolutely amazing to watch.
Please don’t allow his missus to have too many bottles of Stout, as pleasant as she is, she insists on ‘baring all’ after the fourth or fifth bottle and it’s not a pretty sight, especially if Brian is wearing the teeth at the time. A few quality cans of deodorant may come in handy at this stage too. She never has a problem making a clearing in a room when doing the dance though, it’s possible that it’s people showing their appreciation and allowing her more room to dance the night away or maybe just due to the flatulence.
If someone could please keep Brian topped up with food and cheap Vodka, it will stop him getting too frisky when the missus gets her kit off.
Anyway, looking forward to seeing you all there, and for the latecomers, back at Ian and Ruth’s place afterwards.
For those of you who don’t get all the details, home address etc, i’ll publish them later along with all the contact numbers.
Please do be conservative with the bar bill as Ruth has informed me that they can only afford to cater [beer and food] for about two thousand people.
One last thing, presents ! Ian loves the colours Pink and Violet so kindly make all presents colour co-ordinated.
Cheers, Mark. 
Sorry, should have mentioned, i can’t guarantee anything on the health and safety aspect so it may be advisable for people to book their own rabies jabs with a local doctor before i let “The Family” loose. Apparently ringworm isn’t so bad to control with modern medicine.
