Indeed sixty is nothing as proved by some decidely un-sixty frolicking in the hills above Tilling for the occasion of Iain's landmark birthday. The ever-lovely Annie hosted a super-duper pique-nique with prawns and egg sarnies and sausages and fruit salad and we had birthday cake and all from a table draped in snowy-white linen. And there was a bit of booze. As usual, the photographer said no no to nutritious fruit shake drinks and yes yes to a bit of lovely blanquette.....
La belle norvegienne was putting a very brave face on it despite losing her car into a ditch. Everyone rallied and lots of brave old blokes with bad backs said they'd just lift it but their power remains unproven 'cause it wasn't really stuck. Bit back, bit forward and it was out. But everyone felt better that the old Golf lived to see another day.
All in all a jolly spiffing day and I know that everyone, even the old folk, had a lovely afternoon in the sun - see view of vineyards on the hills. Beat that!
Thanks to Gus for the good photos....
