Crescenters announce arrivals at a ball nominated by any player, until topics are exhausted or dying, whereupon another social function is picked and it all begins again.

New theme? Or something completely different?
And now for something...I've tried to think of some suggestions, but for now seem to be drawing a blank.
...completely different. All further arrivals must stay under the line. Mornington Crescent
Um, I said Mornington Crescent. Where's the Grim Reaper when you need him?
Over 'ere, mate. Time to give this one a decent burial. Anybody fancy a Geographer's Ball? Lots of weird-sounding specialist terms.
Well, I have no idea as to how long it might last but someone has to strata off.
It's a short ball. Will you please welcome Mr & Mrs Gitude, and their son Lon....
Please mix with the D'analands and their daughter, Gwen.
Just before I head for the punch, please welcome the Boles together with their daughter, Dusty.

That stir is being caused by Mr & Mrs Dblenda and their daughter Anne
Followed by distant cousins, Mr & Mrs Singbowl and their son Mick

How about a visit to the "Place Names Ball" I can see our first guests it's Mr & Mrs Yer and their daughter Libby
Oh dear, put on your woolies for its the Tarcticas again, with their icy daughter Anne Tarctica. I think I will hang out instead with Mr & Mrs Gall, and their warm and friendly son Ben Gall.
Please welcome Mr and Mrs Tshire and their son Will. (He's got a German friend Hants).
Welcome, please, from Bristol Mr & Mrs Stoke and their son Bradley.

Please welcome Mr & Mrs Tolya, and their daughter Anna Tolya.
Prithee all be upstanding for Mr and Mrs Thorpe and their windswept daughter Mabel.
And while we're about it, how about a big hand for Mr and Mrs Green and their son Lee.
Fussy point, but places that are named after people should not be allowed, eg Johannesburg. Probably rules out half the place names in England, including where I live - "the hamlet of Weorla's people".
From darkest Wiltshire, Mr and Mrs Malford and their son, Christian. Don't know if that one offends your rule, Rosie.
Will you please welcome Mr and Mrs Terbourne Abbas and their son Wyn. (Softers) - Looks all right to me. :-)
From Dorset, Mr & Mrs Port, and their daughter Brid Port.
Ladies and gentlemen, the delightful Mr and Mrs Chester, who also have a son called Wyn.
Please welcome Mr and Mrs Ford and their son Brad
All be upstanding for Mr & Mrs Gio di Calabria and their son Reg.
A big welcome to Mr & Mrs Le street and their fine son Chester
Let's hear it for Mr and Mrs Bao and their son Bill. Dreadful.
Obviously, Mr & Mrs Borough and their son, Peter.
Also introducing from Wiltshire, Mr & Mrs Isbury and their daughter, Sal.
All rise for Mr and Mrs Ham and their son Rex. (Softers) Your first one violates The Rule!
Look who's here its Mr & Mrs O'Groats and their son John
[Rosie} CanI just say that the problem with "The Rule" is that a large proportion of places *are* named for people, whether resident or saintly. Thus Peterborough - but I'd allow this, as it's all one word, whereas Mavis Enderby (Lincs) would be instantly disqualified.
Mt & Mrs Caster and their son Don Caster.
And now, let's hear it for Mr and Mrs de Janeiro and their son Rio. (Herr Bratsche) Doesn't using the already-existing personal name as part of the "answer" defy the whole purpose of the game, which is to conjure names out of thin air, as it were? There's no essential difference, in this sense, between your two examples. BTW, aren't you up rather early this morning, for a musician? :-)
[Rosie] I don't do it for a living! By day, IT consultant, by night, musician.
Please welcome Mr and Mrs On-Wye and their son Ross. And from the wilds of Wyoming here's that retiring young lass Shy Anne. (Herr Bratsche) Oh, hard cheese. :-)
