Well, I don't really have the secret to a successful party but I am feeling pretty pleased with myself after the success of Miss Frugal's 8th Birthday pamper party this afternoon. All seven girls who were invited turned up (I always worry everyone will forget) and we were having that much fun that the two hours flew by. Everyone's just left and I thought I'd have a nice cuppa before I get started with Operation Clean Up ;-) At one point I thought the party was destined to be a disaster, first the hairdressers I booked for the party closed down, then I got an ear infection which meant I've … [Read more...]

I think the CD was more for Miss Frugal as she loved Cheryl but I quite like her too so I'll let her off.I know Mr Frugal wanted … [Read more...]
Birthday Party Traumas
I have just got back from taking little Miss Frugal to a birthday party, it was in a church hall and had an all singing, all dancing, bubble blowing, light flashing disco there. The kids loved it!When they played 'Is this the way to Amarillo' all 25 kids stopped running about like mad freaks, got into a line and started doing exactly the same dance. Very weird, like a scene out a body snatcher movie!!! Turns out that this is their new song for wake and shake on a morning at school! That's a relief.The party was fantastic though, it was fancy dress and the parents had hired a church hall and a … [Read more...]
