Leaving Party
 

Ok lets have some ideas for a leaving party. What have you all done for leaving parties? Thought about having an Australia theme, obviously. Any idea's for food, entertainment , anything really.

My leaving do was interrupted by my mate's 15 year old daughter taking advantage of the festivities and absconding with some young blighter she'd met in a fairground. :ohmy: The whole evening turned out to be a giant search and rescue mission whilst my mate was weeping. Don't invite any b@oody teens, that's my hint and tip

oooooooh i have planned my leaving down to a tee and i not even got TRA lodged yet LOL
have a look at http://www.peeks.co.uk/productlistin...CTCATEGORY_3_3 for loads of brilliant ideas for decor etc.

Im gonna have lots of inflatable kangaroos etc and lots of spiders hanging down from ceiling (friends just love telling you about he spiders hey!) then im getting male friend of mine to do the barbie come rain shine or snow :thumbup:

I was going to - then changed my mind - thought after a few drinks it would all get too mushy and i'd rather people nor me cried - i won't even let anyone come to the airport :thumbup:

We won't be doing the leaving party thing, would be far too upsetting!

Would suggest a bar and music and lots of tissues ;)

Having a big leaving do in town - meal followed by drinks and dancing - have booked out top floor of a club. Looking for an inflatable kangaroo, and maybe a shark... plus some aussie flags..... Hope it will be a great night!
Could not just slink off and not say goodbye to people.

I spent my last month in the UK basically in the pub.As I had one leaving do with my work colleges:beer:
Then another with my oldest dearest friends and then a final farewell do on are last evening with the family.:beer::)
Having one bash ,would of made life a lot more easy'er .
But for me saying a proper cheerio to each and everyone would have been a lot harder.:

Whoop's and I forgot to mention the crazy girls night out I had to. He He .

Re: Leaving Party
 

we had a big leaving party and we had such a good time i invited friends only as problem with family re moving to oz .But that didnt stop us having a good time there was about 200 there we had lots of australian flags and stuff and i lost count of how many cork hats i got ha ha mind i wish i had got one now with these dam flys ha

Re: Leaving Party
 

Cheers all for your replies. Don't think it will be too upsetting as we will see those close to us after the party and be able to say our private goodbyes then. I agree about them waving us off at the airport been a bad idea.
I discussed it with my mum who also agreed that we think that would be too hard and also upsetting for the children.

Thanks daunted for that website, I have had a look and will definately be placing an order.

Trying to sort out a venue at the mo.

We are thinking of having an 'open weekend' where friends and family can call in at anytime over the weekend. I will be a two day party!!! with an Aussie theme of course!! Good luck with your plans!! C x

Re: Leaving Party
 

OOH! good idea shiels ;)

Re: Leaving Party
 

Our original saturday night plan is turning in to a bit of a 'whole weekender' now - people keep saying they want to meet up for breakfast in the morning, or let's have lunch together first, or maybe we'll come down on Friday too..... :ohmy:
Promises to be a good weekend though!
(Will have to detox for a month afterwards!)

Re: Leaving Party

Re: Leaving Party
