This was a quiet event, which means no one got pissed or fell down in the
gutter. However, there was a fair amount of noise. Dear One told
me we were going to have the family over for a quite afternoon tea, and then
invited lots of other people. She then went off and set up the urn,
the coffee percolator, cooked scones (with jam and cream, no less) and then
organised for a lovely, sunny day.
So I ended up having a lovely day, speaking to friends, drinking tea and
eating scones, while the multitudes of children ran and rode bikes around
the back yard. It may not sound like much, but I had a wonderful time
and managed to regain a great deal of perspective, something that had been
slipping recently.
In the end, there really isn't much better then a day spent with friends
and family, is there?
