It was most injudicious of me to disappear just as things were getting close to Halloween. This year I accepted the kind hospitality of Vince and David in Northern Ireland where I would be attending the same party as I did last year – albeit in much more salubrious circumstances.
I had worked the nightshift and my flight was on Friday at midday so by the time I had checked in, eaten and sat in my seat on the plane I was fast asleep – for what seemed like 3 minutes when we landed in George Best Airport. I was greeted there by Vince and from the moment I arrived was constantly bombarded by bon hommie all around.
The boys have a gorgeous house and I could quite easily move into their bathroom permanently – sigh
Naturally, Saturday was the day of the party and I was a working girl. After a trip around Belfast in the morning and a quick visit to some of the shops there – new Speedos, saucy underwear, t-shirt, nothing drastic – I then hit the make-up table transforming David into Annie Lennox; Vince into The Dark Angel and Claire into the Mistress of the Dark. Once completed I donned my Roman gear and we headed over to the party.
I have not seen any pictures to post of my work, but hopefully I will soon.
Until then, suffice to say the party was a hoot and I won Best Male Fancy Dress and Claire won Best Female.
I have not seen any pictures to post of the party, but that’s probably for the best.
