Right, the first thing I need to make absolutely clear is that this was not, absolutely not, intended to be a karaoke night! I mean, those things are trashy right? We'd never set out to host a scaly, trashy, bad taste karaoke night, ok??? (alright, so we've got the microphone and the karaoke disc but who hasn't?!!!) (what? you haven't got one?!)
It was just a tasteful dinner party, held at ours in January, with Mel, Donald & Michelle and Val (out from the UK).
What went wrong? To be honest I really don't know. Maybe it was Mel's influence. After all, she does seem to feature with amazing regularity, whenever there's anything untoward going on.............
So, anyway, before I go off on a tangent, basically we had a great dinner party and the wine flowed........Oh! Maybe that was it! It's the wine's fault!
We had this great evening and suddenly we found ourselves up, on the 'stage', microphone in hand, belting out hits at top volume in our best, out of tune, screeching voices!
We sang and we sang...................my poor husband was working that weekend so had to get up early the next morning. At some point he even disappeared for snooze..........
There was no stopping us........until Justin arrived back on the scene with the words "hasn't anyone got homes to go to?"!!!!!! This was about 3am by the way!
The screeching came to a halt at that point and Justin's favourite saying is now "that's the first time I've had to boot a 60 year old from my home!" Good on you Mel! Come back soon for another karaoke night! oooops! I mean, come back soon for dinner (and maybe we can get out the karaoke discs!) sssshhhh!
And Val! As for you! Please come back! Can I tempt you with the fact that I've just purchased four new karaoke discs and two new remote control microphones? Hell, I have got it bad..........................!!!!!
And Donald & Michelle? no worries there, they're just waiting for the next invite!!!!!
