This Saturday I am going to this. Well what could be better? A forties do with all the attendant music and lovely dancing peeps, plus a raffle, plus it is on a BATTLESHIP, well the HMS Belfast to be precise. Finally it is being held for a worthy cause, to raise money into research and support on a difficult and challenging skin condition. I know some readers of this blog are tourists and some are Soho die hards but this night deserves your support. There may be tickets on the door but I'd get in and buy some here: Swing for Skin.
These ladies look glamourous, if only! I'm not sure what to wear and am torn between a simple 40's US rayon dress or something more dressy. The only definite will be the appearance of the evil victory rolls! mind you I am also wondering whether my 49/50 WRVS uniform will fit, as I don't have a WREN one:
But however I look the view will be wonderful, the Thames at night is always decorative but Tower Bridge always looks gorgeous:
For the environment, the history, the music and entertainment this is a very good deal and for a good cause, I hope to see you there, if you spot me come up and say hello! Redlegs. x
Thank you so much for blogging about this, Mel has put in a lot of hard work (and myself, minimal amounts) to get this night off the ground and I am so excited that it's finally here after months and months of planning!!
