Party Preparations
!http://www.fionasquietlife.co.uk/images/16.jpg!
going going gone.….….the stamps have been collected , the wool and fabric have been collected, the rest is waiting in the hall. Basil is wading through dozens of old New Yorker magazines from the 1970’s the cartoons are just as relevant today; plus ca change.
invites have gone out to relatives and friends for the upstairs downstairs party.
Him upstairs is throwing a party for his friends and i am throwing a surprise party for Basil’s 80th birthday on the same day so the whole house can join in and if Basil is too ill it can all move upstairs.
i am, under cover of emptying the attic washing all the wine glasses and cutlery and hiding it in newly emptied cupboards.
i wish they would get on with the bloody French windows and the kitchen floor.
ah well! he has dozed off so i can get some more done.
it is the ordering of food that i am looking forward too.
