Simon Borland's Party at the Hippodrome, 20/10/06

[El Salsero Gringo]

For anyone not "in the know" (is that anyone at all?) Simon's throwing a "party" at the Hippodrome tomorrow night. So far so good - except that today I'm asked "If you want to support us in creating an ongoing Jive Super Club then lets make the place hum. If this is a conflict for you personally, we understand - Please contact us if you do not wish to come"

Why on earth should there be a conflict? Private party, right? Or is this the start of a new business empire?

How much is it to get in, btw?

He asked me to put it on my list - so you could email him for an invite, shame you don't read my list (I don't think he has over 700 personal friends)

I love a good conspiracy.

AFAIK There is no entry charge as it is strictly invitation only :-

Stop Press! Hippodrome is FULL!!!!

Dear Friends

Thank you so much for you’re overwhelming responses to the Jive party of the year at the Hippodrome on Friday 20th October 2006. We are stunned to announce that the guest list is completely and utterly full! WOW! 2 weeks ago I sent a home made happy snap invite, emailed to 25 people - I have just finished compiling the guest list and cant believe the travels some of you are making - we have guests actually flying in from Midlands, Scotland, France, Germany, Sweden, Miami, Sydney, Melbourne, Spain, and somehow the Icelandic womens volleyball team! True!

On Friday night, Susie Kable and I look forward to dancing with you all. For those of you who don’t know Susie yet, she is one of the talented Advanced Aussie teachers, now gallavanting around London, and was one of my teachers early on when I was dragged along to my first ever-Modern Jive class last century.

STRICTLY guest listed - please don’t bring any additional non-guest-listed friends on the night. We can’t get them in. If you have not had a confirmation reply from me or you are unsure if someone is on the list, please email to check.

I've been told its free, so long as you're on the guest list, but I'd really like to know too, I don't want to turn up and find out I haven't got enough money on me!

So, who is going, anyone work in the centre of town? Anyone planning on meeting up somewhere first?

Please email who to check? I was invited, I've put names on the list for me and a friend, but I've not had confirmation that I'm on the list! How can I find out?

Well check with Simon first, because I gather it's free only for some.


Will and Kate, and Amir and Cat are performing, by the way, and I gather Kenobe is DJ - but he's only permitted to play from a pre-approved play-list

And how do I do that?

And how do I do that?

the email continues... "and if you want further updates, just email me simon@simonborland.com"

[Dizzy]

It's free to get in but you have to be on the guest list.

I will be on the door so you are gonna have to sweet talk me.

Tiggs, I will be going to Leicester square straight from work so you can meet us if you wish

[fletch]

Hi babes,

I'm going with the Witty 1 i'm stopping at hers, I will be in London quite early as i'm taking the children to my mom's at lunch time, I would think WB will be up for drinks beforehand although I might look a bit of a chump in a long frock like I care

[TiggsTours]

Thanks, what email?

[El Salsero Gringo]

Thanks, what email?

[TiggsTours]

Well, I can be up in town for anytime after about 6pm, how about anyone who's heading up early plans to meet up in Ruby Blue:
