stag party- help needed
Options

Posts: 2,761 Forumite
hi all hoping you can help out.
I'm getting married next summer :j but before that is a major obstacle, the stag party.
my problem is this, i'm not a typically blokey bloke, a few years ago i had a health scare and what was suspected to be one of the male cancers turned out to be a kidney condition, all is well except i cant drink a lot, 2 or 3 is the most before i get kidney pains.
my quandry is this- i cant have a typical stag party and i need to find something for my motley crue to do.
they consist of me, my best friend (best man), my other best friend (usher), my dad, my father in law to be, brother in laws to be (2 of them), nephew to be (17 years old) and possibly a few others.
i'm stumped for ideas, can anyone provide inspiration?

What about a segway safari?
I saw on the go-ape website they do them at some of their locations and lots of other companies do them too!

http://www.adventurecheshire.co.uk/stag_and_hen.html This place is 30 mins from Manchester and does loads of things like quad biking (you don't need a license for off-road activities) and falconry. Prices seem pretty reasonable

Does your dyspraxia affect your running? If not, could you tally it up with a 2.8 Hours Later event, and go for a meal afterwards?

Sorry Split Second
What about something like a murder mystery dinner/cruise? I'm trying to think of things that aren't overly physical but fun without needing to center on drinking...

Go out to the pub and have a curry afterwards? You don't have to actually 'do' anything active or abroad or amazing; just going for a drink with your pals and some food after surely will suffice?Sanctimonious Veggie. GYO-er. Seed Saver. Get in.0
