By Order of the A.M.S (Aberdeen Monthly Social)…..
You are invited to the November Social!
"Whaddya Hear, Whaddya Say?"
Yes that’s right, the Aberdeen Social is going gangster and we’re hoping to ‘make you an offer you can’t refuse!’
Whether you fancy yourself as the top honcho as a Don Corleone, a dynamic duo like Bonnie and Clyde or take influence from the Peaky Blinders, this party is inclusive to all!
You’ll be invited to ‘say hello to our little friend’ from 6pm on Saturday the 25th of November at a city centre location, good enough for even the exclusive ‘Five Families’ and perhaps a bit of an upgrade to ‘The Garrison Pub’. Exact location to be given closer to the event to avoid a slip of the tongue and keep the suspense.
‘Oh, we’re sorry, did we break your concentration?’ Just remember “those that want respect, give respect” so any unfavourable behaviours will result in you ‘swimming with the fishes.’
We look forward to welcoming you to “The Family”

We’re really looking forward to hosting our first big social and we can’t wait for you to join us!
We’re managing ticket sales and communications through the swing social website thanks to the sexy duo behind the UptheBrum socials! Please find our event and sign up link on our profile (links not allowed in forum)
We’re hoping to keep the guest list as balanced as possible so when you register for a ticket once it’s approved you’ll be able to purchase your ticket and confirm your spot! Generally we have more single guys looking to come along to socials so please note; If you’re new to our socials, we do ask that you be verified and have an informative profile with pics (not just those pics  ); if not verified and with a blank profile theres a chance if we are tight on numbers we are likely to pass you over for someone else. It’s our first time using the site as hosts so if there are any technical issues please drop us a message and be patience (we’re clearly old school ganstas )
More information will be updated here and through emails however the venue will be open for arrivals at 6pm for a start time of 7pm…..please don’t be later than 7.30pm so we can check everyone in and get started with the fun! The ticket will cover a dj and a buffet so any allergies please let us know when registering for tickets so we can inform the venue. The theme is generic gangster and dressing for the theme is not mandatory but encouraged ??
There will be a telegram group open for this social beforehand so we can get to know each other a bit before it; more info and the opening of it will be announced in the coming weeks.
For those looking to travel through to Aberdeen or if you are just wanting to make a night of it and thinking about booking hotels, please feel free to send us a message as we have deals from local hotels.
Looking forward to seeing you all and partying to night away! ?? |

A wee reminder that our Sunday social is tomorrow so if you are feeling nervous or want to meet us before the big social then feel free to pop along for a more casual evening social….with no requirement to dress up
And if anyone can teach me some more gangster pop culture references/quotes feel free as I don’t think I added enough in to the first post |

"Ooh this sounds intriguing - will need to get my thinking cap on for a decent outfit  but can't wait!! "
I know, at first I thought it would be a fairly easy one for outfits but now I’m struggling to think haha! We’ll have to brain storm ideas |

Nice 90s early 80s style business attire with your hair done up in a sexy pony tail/Bob unbutton a few top buttons to make the shirt a little more loose and you have a sexy gangster that's sent out to flirt/seduce clientele |

I'd say the clue is in the word "social" but like you fuzzy I could be wrong but more than likely right |

Hiya; just to clarify this is still strictly a social and not a play event! It’s not in a swingers club but a public venue (venue info won’t be released til the time) but even though our area will be private it will still be a public venue and no play/nudity allowed.
Basically just like our regular monthly socials but more formal/fancy!

Thank you everyone who has registered/ bought tickets already! We’re excited folk are signing up and really looking forward to it already! Feel free to fire us any questions and we’ll try and help
The telegram group won’t be live for a couple of weeks so if you are registering on the site make sure hit ‘register for event’ not telegram one and once we’ve approved it you’ll be sent a link to pay; if you don’t receive any emails from Swing Social make sure to double check your spam folder

They are always just social events and no playing allowed , just a Damn good night out enjoying eachothers company and getting to know eachother , simple rule of no playing as it’s very discreet why we are there , whatever happens outwith and after is a different story mind. |

I still have no clue but I know I’m going to be a last minute one but even just general gangster vibes would work too…. Though I’m terrible with ideas though me and someone else remembered Bugsy Malone is also a gangster movie, albeit a kid one |

"Shirt waistcoat black trousers?
Keeping it simple it's so close to Christmas  "
Hehe that was kind of why we left it relatively vague as figured people might not need to buy and get a brand new outfit….or just come as yourselves as you’re already flippin’ badass gangsters |

I was at my first Aberdeen social and spoke to a few people, including two women previously encountered at Bacchus(Dundee), and another two women who recognised me from CJ’s(Glasgow)a few years ago! Got one of the names, but not the blonde one with glasses! Bit difficult to hear with all the background noises, but hope to come back again….! |
