This is my third and final post about a big family gathering over a long weekend in honour of an aunt’s 70th birthday.
THE ACTUAL PARTY
On Saturday evening it was the party itself, which was professionally catered. The food was absolutely delicious as was the drinks, and the presents went down well with the recipient. The main course was lamb tagine, and there was pavlova for pudding. There was a large quantity of champagne, and other fine liquids.
SUNDAY
After the events of Saturday the Sunday was unsurprisingly a quiet day. Many of the guests went home that day. I got out for a walk in the middle of the day, exploring beyond the church and getting a couple of glimpses of the local river, which is a very small one. On Sunday evening I took part in a game called Seven Wonders of the World, which was a bit of fun.
TODAY
I had taken advantage of people leaving on Sunday to move into a room of my own, with rather more space than I had previously had. I was awake bright and early and packed up my stuff ready for the journey back. Just before the journey back to King’s Lynn I managed to go for a very brief walk in the morning sun and got some decent photographs. The journey back to King’s Lynn was largely uneventful, and I got back to my bungalow in north Lynn just after the start of play on day four of the fourth round of the county championship.
PHOTOGRAPHS
Here are the photographs I took from Sunday morning onwards…
