At home

On Sunday, Ae and I shared an at home to mark our 60th birthdays. Ae has reached hers and mine is this Saturday.

About forty of our mutual friends crowded into Ae's home creating quite a buzz with the noise and close proximity given that afternoon showers prevented us spilling onto the back courtyard. Despite large crowds at the nearby Charing Cross Fair and our fears that parking would be non-existent as a consequence most of our friends were able to park quite close. Evidently the Fair-goers were providing a steady turnover of parking opportunities.

I was worried that we hadn't catered sufficient food (mostly hot and cold savoury nibblies) but in fact there was plenty throughout the afternoon even though the party spread across eight hours.

I'm turning my attention now to my visit to Brisbane over the weekend and the birthday festivities there.
