Some of the party games devised by Mark are not quite what you’d expect, however!
The adult version of ‘Musical Chairs’ involves the men getting women to sit on their knees when the music stops and vice versa for the women’s round! These photos show the mad scramble to find a suitable adult! Herlen won the ladies’ round and Tony the men’s.
This version of ‘Pass the Parcel’ involved lots of silly hats and clothes and forfeits, one of which included singing ‘Silent Night’:
This game involved a stuffed chicken and lots of silly noises…
Other games involved silly challenges, including a ‘staring contest’ (won by Stuart):
… a space hopper race full of sibling rivalry:
… and a paper aeroplane challenge, where the mechanical engineer (Garry) was proud to beat the civil engineer (JP)!
All in all, a hugely entertaining (and exhausting!) party, with many thanks to Mark for his ingenuity and cunning!
… to Garry and Alan for their photos:
… to all who helped with the food preparation and clearing away:
… and to all of you who attended!
