SAF Foundation Day at Seletar Camp - HPB's Binge Drinking Campaign (30 Jul 10)

Okay - the message from HPB to all army guys - don't binge drink!  Drinkdings conceptualised this Beer Goggles game - where the guys had to wear the beer goggles (a pair of thick plastic glasses which simulate your vision when you are drunk) and step on 5 tiles of the same colour: ALWAYS-KNOW-WHEN-TO-STOP.  As you can see, the guys were not very successful in keeping their feet within the squares!

And for those of you who are wondering, what exactly is binge drinking? If you have more than 5 drinks in one session (or 4 for ladies), you are considered to be binge drinking.  check out these links for more information on the effects of binge drinking:

NUSS Mocktail Workshop (24 Jul 2010)

Our mocktail workshop for the members of the NUSS Guild House was a hit with the ladies. Young and old, alone, with friends and with parents they came for the class and had a great time mixing 3 international cocktails!

Darren's Wedding at Novotel (17 Jul 10)

We served hundred of apple shooters to the wedding guests at Darren's wedding.  It was a grand wedding with the army march in and men in swanky uniforms (yummy!).  We also presented Darren and his friends with a bottle of whiskey for them to continue the party in their wedding suite.

One happy couple  - congratulations to Darren and his lovely bride!

Arcoroc Launch at BHG Bugis, Bar Flair and Cocktail Making Demo (17 Jul 10)

Arc launched their new series of glassware at BHG and invited Drinkdings to put up a bar flair and cocktail making demonstration to showcase the use of the glasses (no we didn't flair with the glasses).

The crowd loved the cocktail and mocktail samples we handed out and gathered curiously when the flair show started.

OCS Social Night at the Army Museum (16 Jul 10)

The officers of Officer Cadet School invited Drinkdings to serve cocktails at their socia night.  The venue, while far, was lovely, with the function room overlooking the large pond in the middle.  Contrary to popular belief that army boys drink a lot, the officers hardly touched our cocktails - perhaps they were trying to impress their dates...

Apart from a few who happily picked up the bottles with leftover alcohols at the end of the night, it was a slow night for the bar.

Chih Ching's Birthday at Ardmore (14 Jul 10)

A surprise party for the birthday girl who returned from Europe that very evening, planned by her close friends - the cocktail class and tongue twisters were a hit with every one.  The group added their own twist by getting the readers to sit on the UGallop while they twisted their tongues!

Rae Lynn's Fairy Birthday Party and Mocktail Workshop (11 Jul 10)

Our first children's birthday party for 6-year-old Rae Lynn.  Fairy themed with fairy dust and fairy wings, the girls were dressed in pastel fairy outfits, while we decked out the boys in little elves costumers and elfin hoods.  From concept to door gifts to glitter and handmade fairies wings and fairy games, we planned a fairy mocktail class for the children too.  That part really got their attention!

Wilhenseim Regional Get Together - a Hell's Angels Evening (6 Jul 10)

Originally slated for June, Wilhelmsen had to postpone this staff gathering of theirs to July because of the volcanic eruption in Europe that made air travel impossible for the company's overseas staff.  The evening had us as the Mobile Bar, with a special appearance by the Harley Davidson group, staff wearing tattoo arm sleeves and bandannas and live rock performances.
