Having collected everyone from the bar, Guppy leads them back through to the house, where they enter through the kitchen.

The living room furniture has been mostly moved out of the way, and that's where the most of the party has been set up. The sofa and some chairs are around the edge of the room, and there's music playing. The kitchen is a bit small so the food is being taken through into the dining room. Also a little on the small side, but enough for purpose. All of the baby gates are open on the ground floor, but not on the stairs.

Upstairs, the spare bedroom has been set aside for any little people at the party. It's a bit quieter, with baby-sized food, some toys, and a DVD of Pingu playing.

But there will be alcohol left over. He makes a subconscious mental note to stash some for a private binge at a later date.

"Oh no! You have to have a party too! Even if it's belated!"

Guppy grabs a party hat from a nearby table, and puts it on Will's head.

"You can share mine for now."
