Hello once again !

Hoorah! it's our first birthday and we're gonna party like its... erm... our first birthday! It's been one whole year since we tumbled down a hole after the white rabbit into a binglybongly wonderland and we haven't looked back since. So you and your chums are cordially invited to join in the celebrations because, let's be honest, it just wouldn't be the same without you!

Ooer, now we feel a bit woozy after all the pre-birthday Sherry and Battenburg cake and crikey, we think we can see a highly improbable scenario materialising up ahead...

The NEXT binglybongly party is "binglybongly magic" at the Spitz on Sunday 15th June 2003: * Free before 5pm *

	Our musical mad hatters Captain Fang, Fluff, Antnee and Vicky have coaxed the Dormouse out of the teapot and given the trusty teabag a squeeze, and they're now ready to pour you a brimming cup of musical tomfoolery. So put your glad rags on, put the Cheshire cat out with a saucer of milk, and come join us for some binglybongly magic. The perfect soundtrack for your Sunday and our birthday!
	Immerse yourself in the magical interior by Fabricate, point and cry "off with his head!" at the visuals by binglybongly and igloo, try some live percussion or have a holistic massage. You might like it...
	Sunday the 15th of June 2003 - 4pm to 10.30pm Free before 5pm then admission Ł3.00 or Ł2.50 with a binglybongly badge! Come early to make the most of it!
