Val's Party ... a month early





Since it is going to be Val's birthday while we are in India, we decided to have a party for our friends here in Perth. Ken and Lorna as usual so sweetly came the night before. Lorna helped Val and Ken and I put up the lights. Of course our other friends helped with the cooking.



The food you see on the left was delicious ! A number of pasta dishes, salads, beef vindaloo, Christines famous korma etc etc.




Dorothy made a whole heap of pink cup cakes which was arranged upward and Val had to cut (one). The call for a speech went out but no way would Val give one. She thanked the people though.

It really was a beautiful balmy evening, but i had a couple of fires just in case... Also had marshmallows for the kids to toast and be entertained. So after dinner thats what was done. The kids loved it.

















By 11 pm people started leaving. The music was turned down a tadd and we sat around the fire chatting and making jokes.
