A few of my favourite photos from last night
Nobody seemed particularly worried that we appeared to be in the middle of a scene from The Prisoner. This may have had some influence on our decision to start dinner with cake 🙂 After the belly dancers, an aerobics session (complete with Jane Fonda workout tape), and the crowd starts to join in: Not long…
Stewart Island

Even after all these years, I still find it slightly fascinating that someplace that feels as exotic as Wales has the same flowers that I have in my backyard (although mine bloomed about a month ago.) You have Texas flowers!!! 😉
Are those snowdrops in the sixth picture?
Aren’t they beautiful?
