    Hey,

    It is my friends 21st at the start of April. She is literally only going to be back from a long family holiday then. She does want to organise something for it but her bf has said to me that he'd really like to surprise her and organise something nice for her.

    Now he's not looking to book a room anywhere for a party. He was talking about maybe booking a bus and getting an area reserved out in Time in Naas (we went there for another 21st, had great craic) but he said he'd like as many different ideas as possible. Anyone have any??

    I gave this advice to someone planning a party, they were going to have it at home, but if you find somewhere suitable & you have enough time you could do the same. Just leave out the games.

    Alternatively have you tried your local GAA club? I did a birthday party at the Whitehall one last year and it was pretty big. The eireann sports club near tolka park has a function room, can't remember the exact name of it but it was near tolka park.

    Here is what I told the other poster:
    How about a James Bond night? (looks down to sig!) I have all the theme tunes, and an excellent little gadget called a 00DJ! The James Bond of DJing! You could get all your guests to dress as different chracters from the films.

    Why not write various characters from the films, (check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Bond for the full list!) on post it notes and stick them out of the persons view, (forehaed/back etc). Then the person has to guess who they are by asking others questions. They can only reply yes or no. So they can ask am I a villain? etc.

    As regards to food, martinis are the obvious choice, but you could make pretty much any drink really. According to one site James Bond claims to 'Prefer the ordinary plain food of the country' He does like Vodka & Tonic or champange, you could replace that with sparkling wine from Tesco!

    In Live and Let Die, he eats little neck clams and fried chicken maryland. Obviously little neck clams are out, but you could get some southern fried chicken pieces from tesco again. Also he likes Tagliatelle Verdi when in italy, but of course this can't really be served cold - goes bit rubbery!

    You could do it like the ice hotel, lots of shiny paper, and cellophane. Or check out the link I gave for the list of bond information. Might jog your memory for the themes of the films. Alternatively as the last film was called Casino Royale, you could decorate like a casino. Chips, fake money, coins, cheap n tatty jewelery etc?
