My party was held at Lismore Bowling Club and we used some of the spectacular lanterns that the Lantern Parade people have created to help with the makeover. Two of these suns stood at near the doorway, welcoming guests inside. A local fire-twirlers group displayed their talent twirling fire as my friends made their way up the path.
When Steve and our friends Jason and Andy arrived at 4.45 to set up the club, it was still packed with bowlers enjoying their post-bowls drinks. I just couldn't see how we were going to get the place ready by 7pm. But we did and it looked pretty amazing. This photo doesn't really do it justice but it became a colourful glamorous space for about 7 hours.
And of course, no party of mine (or Steve's) can go ahead without fabulous entertainment! We are very lucky to count amongst our friends great performers such as Glenda above and Savannah von Spelling below.
Glenda did a spot earlier in the evening and then she, Savannah and Newcastle's one and only Mrs White Trash performed the second show.
About a third of the way through the number she was doing, Mrs White Trash deftly removed this outfit to reveal another on underneath that was more in keeping with the song she was performing to, I Just Wanna F***in' Dance (which, if you haven't heard it, is pretty fabulous).
Apart from the suns, we also had some star-shaped lanterns on the pathway into the club as well as these exotic beauties, orchids, which we lashed to a couple of poles in the club. They really gave the interior a somewhat surreal look.

All so sensational, I'm sure the Lismore Bowlo hadn't seen the likes of it before....
