    	Seems pretty simple to me ....................
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    	Have the party at Culbert's House  !!!!    :-)
    
    
    
    
    

    Based on recent performances that would probably still be too far
    for Paddy to travel.
    
    Jen, just pick a place/time, the same people will turn up anyway,
    democracy in these situations doesn't work (it doesn't work that
    well anywhere), and ignore the begrudgers.
    
    

    
    Ho Ho Ho....she's back.
    
    I've decided to follow Kevin's advice and just "PICK A PLACE".
    
    So here it is:   Friday, December 20th (same date as before)
    
    Place:   The Homeplate Pub and Grill,  245 Ayer Rd (Rt 2A) Littleton
    
            Take 495 to the Rte 2A exit.  Head toward Ayer (not Littleton)
    
            The Pub will be right on that road about 2 miles from 495 on
            the right.  (Just past Sandville - gravel)
    
    I've been told they have a nice lounge.  They serve FOOD in the lounge
    with prices in the $5 - $10 range.   It isn't in the city.  They have a
    large well - light parking lot.  It isn't TOO far north  or south.  It
    is right off the highway and close to where many folks work!
    
    
    and best of all......the sell Guinness on tap!
    
    So PLEASE give me some feedback on who thinks they will be able to make
    it.......SantaJen wants to know if she'll be sitting all by herself!
    *<|:)
    
     

    I can't make it, I have to do my nails.
    
    Pat

I can't make it...I have to do my dog's nails.     ;^)

Just kidding.  I would love to go.

    RE: .4  Pat....what's the matter...R.U. a whimp????  I drive that far
    to work every day :^)
    
    RE: .5 Diane, THat's great....we'll finally get to meet you!
    
    /Jen  
    
    P.S. So, is it just me and Di????  Speak up!!!!
    

    Sorry, but I'm still in shock at someone taking advice from me, even my
    kids say !oh that, daddy he's a; riot just ignore: him" (they haven't 
    mastered the punctuation piece yet). I'll be there and will try and 
    raise a gang of noncelt raggamuffins to fill out the gaps.
    
    P.S. iF pAT TriEd tO mAkE it, wE'd haVE mOAVEd iT aN Hour FuRTheR SOUTh

     *   keVin will be doing his Christmas shopping that night and Paddy's
         going with him in an advisory capacity....but.....!

    I'll be there.   5:00ish sound bout right???

    I think I can make the .5 mile trek from the office.
    
    Julie

    OK OK - I'll come as long as I can bring my bodran.

    Ok George .. And I'll bring the pen knife  !!!     :-)

    What a novel idea....
    
    I'll bring mine and we can play jingle bells for the crowd.
    
    Does this mean YE-3 is on the verge of becoming the YO-4.
    
    Let it be known while I was out and laid up for the past 2 weeks
    I was working on the ole bAdhran....
    
    paddy

Jen,

What were you thinking of - inviting "rent a crowd". That mob will expect you to
BUY ALL the Guinness.

Speaking of same  there is a party in the G brewery this afternoon. You are all
invited.

	MBr

    
    I'm sorry but I can't make it. However, if the party continues into
    Boston let me know!
    
    keVin - I gave Julie the t-shirt :')

    	What little song does Santa sing to make his reindeer behave ???
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    	My bologna has a first name, it's C...O...M...E...T...
    
    
    
	My bologna has a second name, it's .......
    
    
    
    
    
    	keVin
    

    It's strikes me as peculiar how a food,named after the well-known
    Italian city of Bologna gets pronounced "baloney" in the U.S.
    
    	Good luck with the Turkey dinners all you across the ocean,
    I have been told that for many busy American families, it is one of the
    few times they have a home cooked meal together.
    
    As for my folks, I am the only "chick" left in the nest so the three of
    us,who don't have big appetites, will have a Turkey Weekend.
    
    THere will be Turkey Pie,Turkey Curry,Turkey Casserole and any other
    dish we can think of to use up a 15lb bird.............
    
    God alone only knows what we'll do with the Ham.......

    Hi folks.
    
    Not that this has anything to do with the base note....but that's ok
    cause I started it!  
    
    I just wanted to comment on the 'turkey' note.  Personally, in my
    family we follow the tradition of the who's in whoville....we have
    roast beast (um, make that roast beef) for our traditional Christmas
    dinner!
    
    /Jen
    

    
     Ah yes, that time of year again.
    
     I remember one year, went to my brother's place and gave his kid,
    my nephew Jack-O, a little boat with all sortsa delicate parts 
    wrapped in a box too big for the contents.  Well the little bugger
    screams "AWESUN" and proceeds to shake the bejesus outta the pretty
    box 'til he hears a *ping* and a *snap* and a *shuffle-shuffle*.
    (*shuffle-shuffle* is the sound of ten-thousand useless pieces of
    wood and plastic sliding across the bottom of a box that used to
    contain a boat).
    
     Ah well, Santy-Claus wasn't too popular that year.
    
     The next Christmas I gave him a block of wood.  
    
     And ya know he busted that too!!!
    
    Ah...Santy's gonna stay scarce this year and work on a good case of
    wet-brain.
    
    Merry Christmas to all.
    
    And that goes for yer little dog too.

    See you all tonight....
    
    If I don't see ya here's a little advice for the holiday season.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    If you attend any parties this time of year
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    Don't drink too much
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    but if you do drink a little more than you should
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    on the way home turn the radio volume up to the highest setting
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    that way you won't hear the CRASH.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    seriously    If you are going to drink to an excess get a designated
                 driver.
    
    
    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

    Re: .21
    
    Hello Frank, and where were you???
    
    A good time was had by all.  THe photos will confirm.  What am I bid
    for the negatives?
    
    As the dutiful hostess, I made sure all had left the place in vertical
    orientation.   And no damages were incurred.
    
    Of course, I can not vouch for what became of KeVin and the Australian
    bottle of beer that he was clutching :)
    
    Until next year...this is Ms. Holiday A&E signing off.

    RE .31 Hi Denise!  Glad you made the party!  Hope you had fun and that
    I can count on you next year (see, I only venture into CELT party
    planning once a year....it's toooo stressful!)
    
    KeVin, Behave yourself or I'll call in your wife!
    
    Oh, by the way, I did get some interesting pictures that night. 
    Unfortunately, I only took about 12 and the roll of film has 36
    exposures....now I have to think of 24 more things to photograph before
    I can get them developed....any suggestions :^)
    
    /Jen
    
    Julie, Who's going on the 5th?
    
    

    
    	jen,
    	why do you think this august party needs to know about kevin's 
    	wife????
    	personally i don't care.... i still respect him.
    
    	denise

    
    Denise,
    
    You RESPECT KEvIN????   Now I really do have to question your
    standards?
    
    You should go to a Ceili sometime and see him 'try' to do the Clare set
    :*)
    
    /jen
    

    
    
    
    	Jen:   Leave the lady alone !!!!		:-)
    
    
    And you wonder why my wife hasn't been to a Celt Noters Party yet??  :-)
    
    
    
    	keVin
    

    
    	kevin,
    	please do not lay blame at the feet of mr. culbert. i'm his #1
    	fan, confidante, and general luncheon companion. say no more.
    
    	i do respect you, kevin, so far, i've only had the one chance to
    	judge you by. ;-) you can tell we've just met.... you called me
    	a lady.... 
    
    	jen, 
    	it was in poor taste.

    
    I'm going to try to make it Sunday.  No promises, but I'll try....
    
    and just to clear it up...  
    
                  I got a ride to Lawrence not Miami                 8*)
                  jen is absolutly correct about denise              8*)

                  keVin your wife doesn't go cause you're there      8*)
