    I have already decided what my costume is going to be. Just need to make it now, which will take ages... Good thing we got such a long time to prepare!

    I'm not liking the pirate theme - never mind - hard to please everyone! Not great for ladies this theme methinks! Will sort a nice dress out as Saturday night seems to be fancy dress or dress up so will go with the latter this time round!

    There are some great costumes on line, if you don't mind paying a few quid.

    Go as the governor's daughter - you can wear as nice a dress as you like! As long as you can fend off the scurvy sea dogs who'll be mounting a kidnap attempt...

    Pirates eh?

    (Why oh why am I imagining a dance floor of Johnny Depp wannabe Capt'n Jacks dancing with buxom corset clad Geena "Cutthroat Island" Davis wannabes?)

    Do you think I could get away with a T-Shirt that, on the front says "L337 hax0r!" and on the back the words "I HaxOrred Vista!" ?? Wassat? Wrong sort of Pirate?

    Perhaps with the proliferation of Pirates I should come as Peter Pan? I'm half way there alreayd.. am Called Peter and All my friends will tell you I've never grown up!

    Sigh.. I don't do Kohl eyeliner very well But I guess I'll just have to practice raiding, pillaging, plundering, and otherwise pilfering my weasly black guts out.

    There were a few historically famous female pirates who captained their own ships (or stolen ships to be honest) and had male crews.

    Ann Bonny and Mary Read (lesbian pirates), Charlotte de Berry, Ching Shih and Grace 0'Malley

    However women on board ships were thought to be very unlucky normally.

    I think Jive Nation are doing a summer ball or something, dunno about anything else though.
    Last weekend we did a banquet and ball in Bournemouth and in the summer, we are putting on a 5 star, black tie banquet and ball, at a location on Park Lane. It won't be cheap, but it will be exceptional :-) Details soon to be in the newsletter/website/yada yada...
