Come in here and pour out your best ideas sil vous plait !

 

We are doing a come dine with me completion in the new year and need ideas, mostly on entertainment, not food.

 

It has to be good we have to win

 

So far all i have come up with is 'the circus'.  I was thinking lots of lights in the garden, an adult bouncy castle, candy floss machine, maybe a juggler or hoolahooper, teaching skills and .... the best bit.... an adult sumo suit.

 

Then i realised this would cost a bomb, so prob not the bouncy castle, but something along that line ^^

 

any ideas?

Ohhhhh good idea soozy, althoug it would be more likely that little girl would be the tiger not atlas ...

 

and rocky, I could recoup my costs GOOD IDEA!

 

We were also toying with the idea of 'alice in wonderland'. the menus could be written in riddles, and clues about dont be late etc sent out. we could have oversized glasses and plates, a treasure hunt in the garden amongst giant cards (easy to make) to find bottles of poison etc.  We could have a pinata head that we have to 'off with her head'

 

and rabbits running round the garden

Ohhh good ideas, thank you !!! I was also thinking of covering the front door with black fabric and leaving the only visable door that of a wendy house that they have to crawl through so that they go through the small bit then into the oversized bit.

 

I could put all little cups filled with shots and mini canapÃĐs in there

 

I know shots arent the most refined of dinner party starters...but you dont know my friends
