What made it special?
I would go with a dinosaur theme


You get the whole package here with dinosaur plates, cups, backgrounds, napkins, even a few little toy figurines to place around the room. Now this package should only run you about 20 or so dollars and be enough to accommodate a party of 30 guests. I mean if you wanna make it special, dinosaurs are the way to go.

What are those things at the back of the pic, scotch mist? Bit disappointing that they don't have dinosaurs on, plain ones are a bit boring.

For my 40th took me and the missus and 6 best mates (3 couples) up to castle off the west coast of Scotland for the weekend (spiritual home).
Was a week before Christmas and amazingly the weather was fab. Never got above zero but clear blue skys, snow capped mountains, brilliant.
Will prob do the same for 50th
