Family 80th birthday party, Arundel

Today is my mother-in-law's 80th birthday, and the first time that many of us have seen one another in ages (due to the pandemic restrictions). We last all met three years ago to celebrate my sister-in-law Jacinda's 50th birthday in Nottingham. Today we spent 8 hours eating, drinking and chatting in a sunny riverside garden in Arundel (spot the castle turrets). I am very pleased that we also managed to remember to pose for a full family shot.

Here are: 

Back L to R: Julian holding Star, Richard, Sarah, Jacinda, Mr hazelh, hazelh, Paddy (not the Portobello one), Al, Alan
Middle L to R: Clive holding Scampi, Gill, Jonathan, Gilly
Front L to R: Florence, Freddie, Sam, Beth

For her birthday present, we gave my mother-in-law a hard copy of her Aunt Lorna's blipfoto journal in two volumes. She liked it very much - but I think that she was even more pleased to see her son after 526 days apart. Check the extra!

Exercise today: none.
