 A British Summer Holiday Party/Britain 

Everything has a summer feel and will hopefully be of use to you.

Summer Holiday in Britain food

Ideally you will go for a day out at the seaside or for a picnic in the country, then come back and watch this ~ the food is therefore seaside food, picnic food or what we used to do was go for dinner in an expensive sea food restaurant taking in the local fresh fish.  Great treat to sample Britains finest fayre.

Saturday Night TV

The Two Ronnies 



By The Sea and The Picnic

Classic British comedy. Big Ronnie as the crusty old general and little Ronnie as his doltish son lead a family of of English eccentrics including the general's dotty sister , her easily shocked companion and a fiendish small boy with a passion for practical jokes . Add a leggy blonde or two and you have a recipe for some of the sauciest humour this side of Tiddley Cove.

Holiday on the buses

This film survives the PC rules set out in the 80s.  It is really funny and one of my favourites.

A bus depot manager looks for another job in a company after he causes accidents and damages property. There, he meets the inspector who apprehended him for the crashes.


This is old school humour, but really funny and I enjoyed it, think it still works today.

Saturday Night Concerts

Dolly Parton in London


I love this concert

Take a British city Break to London and take in a show.



Sunday Night TV

You can block watch Faulty Towers and The Green Man or I'll load them up separately on weekend TV




Carry on Henry

Another must for any traveller visiting the British Isles is our rich history and Stately Homes.

There are a few Carry on films to choose from, will air them all during the summer.

If you are doing the city break in London, why not try this luxury hotel that Mildred from the nearest and dearest film stays at with her husband George.

You came to London the right week George has discovered James Last is playing at the Royal Albert Hall and he's got tickets.

Sunday Concerts



Will look forward to watching this with some good wine.

Summer reads

I'm not a great reader, but I love sitting in the sun reading, relaxing and doing nothing.

Haven't bought a fiction book for years, so would enjoy this.

Started a collection that will hopefully turn into favourite summer reads.

Conclusion

Hope you enjoy this party, will be on Weekend Tv during July and some will continue into August.

The next online Slimming Calendar Party is August Abroad.

 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
