Ian Seaman Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Many thanks for the invite Dougie, it was an honour to be at your celebration mate, we had a cracking night, the music was top notch all night which i would like to add wasn't because you didn't DJ . Just to explain to folk that may be wondering where the "Spigot" name came from on the pics on facebook !! i took pics with my iphone and uploaded them straight to facebook without the use of my reading specs and as i tried to spell Dougies 60th i may have had predictive text on !!! and it came out as Spigot's !!! :thumbup: Thanks again for a top night mate.

Ady Croasdell Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 A great night, for a great geezer. I enjoyed myself immensely but more importantly can tell you that Dougie did too (as if you didn't know). Thanks to all who made me feel most welcome and the DJs that even got me dancing. The breakfast was 4 sausages, black pudding, bacon, egg, beans, mushrooms and toast so its just as well I'd had a dance. Ady Link to comment
