Private to Ben, Bryn Cho, Ginny, Marietta, and Roger (If I'm forgetting anybody, please let me know)

Yesterday was our all-time favourite rockstar Ben's birthday, and we talked about doing dinner and dancing at Wingbeat this Saturday to celebrate him properly.

Ideas for dinner are always welcome and - according to the birthday boy - plus ones encouraged.

Added later, after this:

We're meeting at the Muggle side of The Leaky Cauldron at 8:45pm. Reservations will be made for the Indian restaurant down the street.

Private to Oliver
Are you free Saturday evening?

	To the Group: You know I'm in. For dinner we could always do the pub, or there's a great Indian place I've been hearing about not far from the Leaky Cauldron. To Melinda: Plus ones, you're kidding me, right? :p (Reply to this) (Thread)

	About them being encouraged? No. Those were Ben's exact words. Encouraged but not mandatory. Do you want us to find one for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well I'm sure they're encouraged. It's just discouraging for those of us without a plus one. And also; no, of course not, I do not need to be set up. Do you remember that awful blind date my Mum & Daddy sent me on last year? NEVER AGAIN. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I know, I know. It wasn't meant to be discouraging, simply Ben being all-encompassing and bringing in more people because he's him and he loves the company. For what it's worth, I doubt you're the only one without a plus one.

You're comparing my abilities when it comes to finding you a date to your parents'? I'd bend over backwards to find someone brilliant. You know that.

You'll let everyone know the dinner plans, right? Meeting at the Muggle side of the Leaky Cauldron? And I'll make the reservations. Not a word from you about my Events Planner coming out to play.

And no, I'm not comparing your abilities to Mum & Daddy, simply saying that I know better than stick my hand in the fire twice, no matter how brilliant you are - it's still fire.

	I've added it to the original message and will let you know how many to make reservations for. Not breathing a word of you doing that thing you do so perfectly, love. Fair enough. I will leave that to you, but I make no promises when it comes to Ben, Bryn, and Roger. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, Indian sounds great. It's been awhile since I've had anything but pub food. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What time should we meet? We shouldn't do dinner too early or the drinks will have Mel and I dancing on tables before the clock strikes twelve! Plus, we can't be the first there. Club opens at 10, how about we meet for dinner at 9 and can take our time? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
