Not content with enjoying ourselves at Ian’s 70th birthday celebration yesterday, today, we laid on a birthday lunch for Lee’s 82nd!
Pick up from Yeoman’s Court was just after 11am (carefully avoiding the planned Armistice celebrations in Burton Latimer) and then we headed back to ours for the birthday lunch. But, before lunch, there was the more vital activity of the present-opening ceremony!

Lunch then followed featuring all Lee’s faves – Roast Chicken, Roast Potatoes, Green Beans, Stuffing followed by Profiteroles!
A great day for Lee then, especially after her recent (and frequent) trips to KGH. We dropped her home (this time REALLY avoiding the Armistice event that I learned was in the afternoon in BL) at just after 3 and then we went onto Sean’s for our final visit this year to get his garden ready for Winter.
Back home by just after 4, we rewarded ourselves with a cuppa and a cheeky mince pie before settling down for the rest of the evening watching TV – the Strictly results and then Blue Planet II.
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
