Party Time at Fieldbase

14th February
By Sarah Frodsham

Valentines evening began on a great note. In the girl’s dorm there was a wave of excitement circling as everyone began to convert their delightfully toxic smelling shiny bin bags into stylish evening wear, ready to dazzle in. After another dinner of curry, we all got changed into our outfits, including the boys, who were just as elegantly dressed!






Laura and Frit



The staff set up an episode of ‘Blind Date’, (a popular television programme in the UK) featuring three contestants and Cupid, who had to choose one of the contestants for an imaginary date. Cupid and the contestants were separated by a screen, so because he couldn’t see any of them, had to make a decision based on their answers to three specific questions, giving him a chance to learn a bit more about each contestant. There were a lot of laughs and finally, Cupid, who had the most wonderful toga, wings and halo, picked contestant number one.



The staff put on their own 'special' version of Blind Date





"Here is your host, Miss Cilla Black!"

Deputy Programme Manager, Tim as the lovely Cupid



"Who's it going to be? The decision is yours..."


The evening moved on with some limbo and lots of dancing - Laurie did some rather impressive break dancing and Christina taught the group the moves to ‘footloose’, a rather funky dance which everyone eventually got to grips with after a few trips and falls – all adding to the humour.

A few games of Limbo


"How low can you go?"
