Once most people had arrived, Kel set about his usual baffling quizzes, followed by Play Your Cards Right and Stand Up Bingo. Kel has been asked not to do Stand Up Bingo next year, as some of the older guests (and one younger one) found it difficult to stand for any length of time.
Play Your Cards Right did go on for quite a while, but as Stefan quite rightly pointed, the problem lay with the Ali Shuffle.
The lashings of real ale went down well, especially after partaking in Bec's wonderful (exclusive to the Soccerdome) scouse. It was disappointing that there was no jelly and ice cream, as most guests had forgotten to bring their Poligrip.
We would have liked David Walliams to come do a stand up spot but instead, mainly due to running out of funds, we had to settle for Brian "The Unicorn" Williams instead. In fact most people didn't notice the difference.
A lot of the guests had been allowed to stay out especially late, providing that they guaranteed their carers that usual medication would still be taken. Although one lady actually tried to insist that Vodka Slushies were her usual medication.
All in all, it was a very entertaining evening. a big thank you to Bec, the manageress and to the two pole dancers, Sarah and Ale. Also thanks to Bec's better half Jason for doing the disco and to Kel for all his usual entertainment.
But most of all a big thank you for the great turn out for our third annual Christmas party.
"You've all done very well", said young Mr Grace.
