jlo Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I know how brilliant you lot are when it comes to inspiration for Fancy Dress costumes so I hope you don't mind my picking your brains again. DS is off to Iceland (in theory anyway ) at the end of the month. Whilst they are there they are having a Fancy Dress party and the theme is "All around the world". Whatever he chooses will have to be fairly light so that he can pack it easily. The ony thought that I came up with was a Hawaiian shirt and shorts but I suspect that this may be a popular choice. Any ideas gratefully received - thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhapsody Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I'd go as the Internet- just a sticker on head with 'www. com' on it. Now that'd be easy to pack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majorbloodnock Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Smudge your faces with soot (volcanic ash might be a little hard to get hold of) and take a couple of placards saying "flight cancelled". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
