Yes indeed :) You are definitely invited - I was rather disorganised about mailing invites so you may well have missed out there but I knew you were on LJ :)

I'm defining the dress code as "dressy". Alex is wearing a 3 piece suit with his Brownies T-shirt on underneath! I am wearing an evening gown. On the other hand this is because I *love* wearing evening gowns. Don't feel obliged to (a) spend money or (b) be uncomfortable but other than that do dress up :)

Thanks.

Umm, having dealt with the important issue of frocks, it now occurs to me that I should ask about the trivial question of what time of day it is?

Oh, scratch that, I've just read the small print on the previous post that specifies evening (as I assumed) - but what's the starting time?

7pm. I'm now wondering if there are more people that I assumed I'd see and didn't post invites to...
