Four-minute warming

As per earlier warning, we're having a housewarming party on Saturday January 27th. That's this Saturday, from, ooh, about party o'clock.

Partners/children/friends welcome. There will be some drinks but mostly Weird Shit From The Back Of The Cupboard so if you want to guarantee that a sane drink will be available you're probably best bringing it yourself. There will be nibbles and (if I have time to bake it) cake, and in case of Munchies Emergencies the Co-op is about 30 seconds' walk from our house and stays open until 11pm.

There may be Singstar if enough people want to and enough other people don't mind.

[livejournal.com profile] addedentry has spent the last two weeks writing an exhaustingly exhaustive guide to finding our house. If you get lost, phone us (if you don't have a number and want one, ask).

Any other questions that I've failed to pre-empt, ask!

Yes indeed. I want to strike the balance between comprehensive and overwhelming, but definitely need to mention at least one other service.

Shame you can't be there, but it was good to see you just before New Year, and this will not be the only day we're at home to visitors!

I think mentioning that some 4s will suddenly go the 'wrong' way just when you think you're nearly there would be useful, though. That's the sort of thing that makes idiots like me really panic when trying to get a bus to a place they don't know.

BTW I notice you also don't offer any instructions for people arriving by helicopter. The top of Elms Parade is probably okay?

But surely people can check on the helpful in-bus electronic display? ... oh.

Top of Elms Parade is okay; less sure about Cornmarket.
