Yesterday a whole bunch of friends gathered to celebrate a friend's 70th birthday.
The picnic shelter in a nearby village was transformed to hold the party.
Those who are musically talented performed songs throughout the afternoon.
I did a little sketch entitled "An Ode to Turning Seventy", helped by my two glamorous assistants and a lot of visual aids.
Years of enjoying the work of Victoria Wood and Pam Ayres came in handy for inspiration.
For more pictures and a review of the event see Jim's post here.
That a tiny village here in the middle of France should have such a great venue available to all for free is amazing but even more so is that we have made such a wonderful number of friends here.
the 70yo is a fortunate person to have such.
ReplyDeleteShe was also very fortunate with the weather. It poured with rain the next day and has been showery ever since. We need the rain but it doesn't half play havoc with outdoor events!
