 60s Party

Easy Access Point

Hello and welcome to the 60's party

We found the 80's party link worked like Tumbler used to, so will load it all up here for you, just add your 60's fayre and alcohol of choice and enjoy!!!

These are my film recommendations, but there is more choice for you on 60's party in Pinterest.  Click the links below.

Saturday 23 March

BBC4 One Night In The 60's - Late Night Line Up


The 60's food option with this TV program is fondue, great if you have guests round for a party.

Fanny Cradock Invites You to a Cheese and Wine Party (1970) | BBC
This video is one year after the 60's but it has the fondue recipe which is probably the same recipe I would guess.

The Entertainer - Tony Richardson | 1960



This film is an insight into the British seaside in the 1960's, you may remember it, or like me not even know about it.

The 60's food option I gleaned from this film is fish and chips and champagne.  This is one of the day off options.  As fish and chips are cooked in vegetable oil these days, they are not as unhealthy as when they were cooked in lard.  They are actually 860 calories a portion. 

The City of the Dead 1960

 (Patricia Jessel, Dennis Lotis, Christopher Lee)  


Had to recommend this film also as never seen it before and loved the 60's vibe running through it.

Have to recommend this film as I love carry-on films

Sunday Night Food Options


This I would serve with a high-quality roast beef joint (hopefully beef will come back soon) and a 60's red wine that goes with beef.  You would start with sherry.

Fanny Craddock offers other roast dish alternatives such as lamb or pork

Filed more recipes from the 60's and found a you tuber making duck a l'orange and prawn cocktail.  Can get the big time Gwen thing now in Fear of Fanny on 70's party.  I'm not a foodie so I'd finish with a chocolate dish, especially as it is one night off in slimming calendar ~ either that or do beef instead of duck if that goes with chocolate.

(This year we are doing Chicken Mcdonald on Saturday and fish and chips, eclair and champagne on Sunday, then whatever alcohol we can get.

Hopefully next year I will be cooking both evenings and have a fully stocked drinks cabinet).

I also recommend Carnival of Souls as it accompanies tonight's selection of 60's Hammond organ

Carnival of Souls

Mary Henry ends up the sole survivor of a fatal car accident through mysterious circumstances. Trying to put the incident behind her, she moves to Utah and takes a job as a church organist. But her fresh start is interrupted by visions of a fiendish man. As the visions begin to occur more frequently, Mary finds herself drawn to the deserted carnival on the outskirts of town. The strangely alluring carnival may hold the secret to her tragic past.

 80's party easy access post Used to do this on Tumbler but it wasn't working properly last time so giving this website a try instead.  Have added advertising to make this legal. Just add your 80's fayre, whatever you can get at the moment, till things get better, your favorite 80's tipple, (alcoholic or nonalcoholic) and sit back and enjoy your fave film, will put my film recommendations on here but you can browse Pinterest for loads more 80's film and Tv choices.  Then get up and have a dance in your living room to a top of the pops party and take in some or all of the concerts.  In the COVID lockdown, we stayed up all night till the Waterloo sunset.  Lastly ~ enjoy!!! Saturday 2nd March These are my film recommendations ~ there are more in pinterest.  You can also try these two looks out in the 80s party fashion folder. Get up and dance off the food and drink to the top of the pops or drink water and get fit and loose weight, You can opt to celebrate all night!!!

 How to do an 80's Party During lockdown, I started throwing online parties.  I was on my own and didn't fancy getting drunk alone.  The internet answered my dilemma and I put together the top of the pop parties and horror films.  It became a weekly habit and getting up and having a dance to top of the pops with a drink turned out to be fun. This evolved into a few Christmas parties and a 70's themed party at the end of dry January. A few teeny bopper ravers were a bit sarcastic about online parties, but don't knock it till you try it. In the early days of Twitter, they may have even been shocked. In those days I had to do the heavy drinker test. Really enjoyed the alcohol and music parties, but then I had to go dry and dry out. The 80s party is a bit more organised than the rowdy chaotic early days. Got the idea for this from supersizers do the 80's. 80's fashion ideas recommended from this documentary Sue shops at Peter Jones in Sloane Square It is now partner

 Victorian Party Hello and welcome to the Victorian Party Easy Access point. The first thing I have to recommend is actual footage of Queen Victoria. Queen Victoria Arrives at a Royal Garden Party (1898) | British Pathé Her Majesty Queen Victoria. Last visit to Ireland. The only "Victorian" film.(1900). She looks really nice and she obviously loves her people and they love her. Hope this gives you a feel for Victorian Times. Just to make this legal ~ some advertising clive Christian  1872 Can't believe I found this, Victorian perfume is still available to purchase today.  The lid of the bottle is styled from Queen Victoria's crown.  This is a great find for a perfume junky or a Victorian history society member. click the link below if you would like to purchase or just browse out of interest . clivechristian.com/products/1872-feminine Have to say rose is one of my favourite fragrances which was one of the Victorian  favourites. The Victorian Party The Food  Wasn't
