Birthday Bash

A former colleague of my mother’s celebrated her 70th birthday with about 50 friends. She and I haven’t been close in the past, but she visited my mother a few times and we got to know each other better. I was still surprised that she invited P and me to her party.

The venue was this partly roofed  courtyard in her village; perfect for a summer day with sprinkles of rain. P isn’t keen on partying with strangers, so I went by myself, met some acquaintances whom I hadn’t seen for many years, and also made new friends. All good.
