Grown Up Debs Ball

OldGoat

Come one, come all, put on a dress and come to the Ball.
Some of ye may have already seen posts for this charity event (Link) but just in case I'm re-posting here (with the kindest permission of the Mods).

In aid of the Irish Cancer Society there is to be a Ball, a Grown Up Debs Ball. It's the chance to glam up (or dress down) and relive the horrors delights of your own school Debs Dance.
Cajole yer man into a tuxedo, dig out the sparkly heels, forge your false ID papers for the Barman, stab yourself with the corsage pin, cringe at the music of your youth, dance till your feet blister.

So, rope in your friends, call your school mates, gather your forum pals and book a table or two. Cocktails, dinner, dancing and the humiliation of asking someone to take you to the Debs. You know you want to.

See the Grown Up Debs Ball site for details.

Thank you.

Looks like so much fun!

But I'll be at the Leinster Vs Munster game in the Aviva. Why does everything always have to clash?!

FYP.

Come to the Ball after the game. Better still, go to the game in your Ball gown.

My friend is in Mayo creditcardless, I'm in Dublin creditcardless. I've emailed the people who run the night to see if I could get two tickets yesterday evening.No reply yet.... I hope they get back to me. I would be able to collect the tickets tomorrow! I hope they get back to me and we can get them!:eek:

Would love to go to this, think it will be a great night, and maybe even better than the Debs first time round.
Just heard about it in the past week and am on night duty all weekend, so, can't make it this time. If it's something that's going to happen again, would love to go, think it would make a really great girls night out.
For all of you who are going, have a Ball!

squeakyduck

Was just talking to the girl that organised it on the phone. She said she is gonna try and make it an annual do.....Sounds like fun! Then you can come along too!
