Monkey's invite to Shaps do lost in post

Have you got your invitation to tonight's hot ticket event? No, not Sir David Attenborough's speech about public service broadcasting. We're talking about Simon Shaps' leaving do. Oh yes. Shaps will be saying, "Hello mate" tonight to colleagues and chums at the ITV Upper Ground building on Southbank. Monkey hears it was supposed to be an ITV-only event but has had to be expanded as rival execs complained they weren't asked. So expect crowding in the bar. Monkey's invitation must have got lost in the post, but don't worry Shaps, we have our sources amid the partygoers.
