After our marathon holiday we were
feeling the strain a little and Sue had to return to work the day after our
long flight home, so it was with a small amount of trepidation that we ventured
out for the day on Saturday.
The old regular gang from GPE, plus
the more recent Honeywell associates gather each year to celebrate and this
time it was Bill and Linda who arranged things. We met at theirs for a hot
beverage and a biscuit before heading out into the unpromising weather. The
walk was around Nonsuch Park and was a damp affair but we persevered with the
promise of meal and drinks to follow. The meal has tended to tended to increase
in importance of the years we have been doing this event and we were well
catered for at the HG Wells public house.
Afterwards we had arranged to go to
Chris and Carole’s (with Deb) for a quiet meal and a catch up after our
holiday, but it seems they had different plans for us having arranged a
surprise Anniversary and 50th Birthday party with some of our
friends. Carole had made a couple of most amazing cakes and laid on a wonderful
spread and it was not until the wee small hours that we stumbled into our bed
exhausted.
