Cool, cool Mandeville felt some musical heat on Saturday, November 12 at Ryde Entertainment's annual Waist Management party, held in the upscale residential enclave, Godfrey Lands. Of course, DJ Squeeze and Renaissance Disco were at the controls so, by midnight, they had coaxed everyone on to the dance floor.

It had all the usual elements regulars have come to expect - good food, endless bar service all night, great chill spots and excellent company. This year, an added attraction was some spanking new wheels from ATL, and guests enjoyed every minute of lusting and sitting in their luxurious interiors. It seemed as if organisers Ryan Knott and Debe-Ann Chen had thought of everything.

The fabulous décor was executed by Kay and Debe and, in-between snippets of conversation, guests took advantage of the popcorn machine, the Ben & Jerry ice-cream cart and the fabulous concoctions by CPU.
