Wounded. You and Terry both lately, that's all I've been getting.
Seeing as your girlfriend's of the giving sort and threw me a party even when I didn't ruddy want one, thought the friendly thing to do is to throw her one in return. Won't bother to mention she's been dropping hints about it since Monday and driving me barmy with it. Problem is, this is Pansy we're talking about, yeah? She's got everything in triplicates. What's her mates to bloody do, right?
Reckon there's three ways we can go about this. One, we, her mates, not do anything and let you entertain her all day, which I'd wager that's what she'd prefer, but I'm not for giving her what she wants. Two, we throw a small dinner party, dress to the nines, I flirt with her mum again all evening, she makes pouty faces and is generally miserable, and we end it with a raucous game of bridge. All sounds well and good, but I'm not for ruining her day either.
Now three - three's genius. We throw a party, but not just any old run-of-the-mill party. A costumed one. With a few exclusions, we'd leave the invite open, people can bring people, my mum'll have a coronary, it'll be fucking fantastic. We can fill the pool with jelly, teach the house elves how to belly slide and balance their trays at the same time, make a few floats, throw in a few horses and the like. Maybe a creative ice sculpture or two. Streamers everywhere. Think carnival, mate. Ever been to one? My mum took me to one with I was nine. Brilliant. Loud. Thriving. Everything Pansy'll cringe at but thank the lot of us later for a brill night. Did I mention the costumes? They're the high point, sure.

When Pansy's handing out the accolades later, I'll be sure to mention your hand in it.
