If you want a new twist on it pick up the Nina Simone remix. I think the art of sitting in on a weekend evening has to be reinvented. The Brits are past masters at this. The Aristos invariably entertain on odd days like wednesday or monday because weekends are spent in the country. In the absence of an estate, couldn't we introduce the QNIWABOF (Quiet Night In With A Bunch of Friends?) Lilac Wine is brilliant. If you want a new twist on it pick up the Nina Simone remix.

Seriously tho' you should still try it, and if they refuse you I guarantee to write a very scathing blog about the British system, not that that would be a break from the norm but you get my point. I would love to say I have the power and the influence to assure you safe and easy passage here but I'm hardly persona grata myself, I am apparently a terrorist apologist. Which I suppose on balance at least beats being a Nazi reconstructionalist! If you aren't visiting this summer there'll be trouble, I mean it, I'll tell Mum!
