Part of the plans when my parents decided to visit us in the UK was to arrange for a birthday party at our house for mum’s 70th where we would play host and invite family and friends over so that they could all catch up and enjoy celebrating the big occasion.
The previous weekend we had been at Paul’s 50th where we ate fine butchered meets from his new BBQ (a present from the gang), drink too much, sang karaoke and wore silly hats (or a lampshade if you want to be particular). The weather that weekend was changeable, as it has been all summer, and so good use was made of gazebos and marquees. Such a good idea it was that we stole it along with one of the gazebos (with permission) that we re-erected on our deck for mums party.
Along with the gazebo we moved the dining room table and chairs around so that we had plenty of space for the 30 or so guests who turned up to enjoy the spread that many helped us with, the carrot cake that Sue made and for those who wished it a glass or two of fizzy cava.
