Miss Ribena, usually well in the know, has no idea what's being planned! K’ Rd staple Family Bar is throwing a party to celebrate the four decades of its infamous hostess Miss Ribena – and you are all invited! The louder than life figure is turning 40, which her friend James “Chocs” Laverty jokes is more like 100 in drag years. He and a group of Ribena’s close friends are putting Saturday night’s party together and is making sure everyone knows about it. “I just want to try and get a small message out if you have known Ribena from over the years and want to help see in the big 40 then party the night away with us at Family Bar,” he says. The fun gets under way at 10PM and to mark the occasion, the first 100 people through the doors before midnight get a free drink. “We have lots of plans for the night but can’t give too much away as Ribena has no idea what the plans are,” Laverty says.
