Party Weekend.

Friends Steve and Ivan came to stay for the weekend and, in this bizarrely small world we all live in, they also know Zoe and Nancy who live close by – so it was a no-brainer that we all meet up and have a wonderful time together.

Here we all are: Doug, Steve, Ivan, Zoe and Nancy inspecting the recent repairs to the sea wall against the backdrop of our lovely beach at low tide and the sea as calm as a millpond.  The lovely dog is “May” and belongs to friend Paul who James (behind the camera) hasn’t seen yet and who is about to creep up behind him and dig him in the ribs!

After a walk along the sea wall and a visit to the ‘Lifeboat’ for a swift ‘aarf’ we all went back home for a deliciously warm and cosy evening of Champagne and nibbles and lots of laughter followed by a Chinese takeaway and wine and more fun and laughter.  This was the “Munchkins” sofa (those who were somewhat vertically challenged) – Ivan, Doug and Nancy.

This sofa was the reserve of those who were not so vertically challenged!  James, Zoe and Steve.

The “munchkins” having fun ……..

More than enough is never too much is it Nancy?  Which one was the best in the end – sloe gin, loganberry gin or the honey rum?!

Positively sated after the best evening possible – Ivan, Steve, Zoe, and Doug with James and Nancy on the floor (which was the safest place for the two of them in the end!)  Thanks so much everyone for such a special weekend – we’ll have to repeat it!
