Back on track

After getting in to a bit of a sticky wicket resulting in much embarrassment, I have decided that my future does indeed lie in blog-writing, though perhaps of the more careful variety.

I am hosting an afternoon tea this afternoon (hey, couldn't have guessed the time of day...). It is to raise funds for Marie Curie. What started as a few pals coming round for a cup of tea and a biscuit has now escalated into approx 20 people, plus some small children landing round here for sandwiches, cakes, traybake, scones with cream and jam and other niceties. I am slightly worried about the chair situation. There are really only seats for about 8 people, so musical chairs will be the order of the day.

I will return with pics of cakes to show you in due course. Potentially also a pic of Pat wearing only trousers and a bow tie which he feels is the most appropriate outer wear for a gent on such an oestrogen heavy occasion...
