Feeling very sad for Bob- horribly mean to leave him alone for the evening, he's still laid up to aid recovery after the detached retina - nonetheless.....
it was Nels brothers' big birthday and old friends from our London days were there, plus Nels family whom I've heard of over the years and was looking forward to meeting. I'm not naming anyone because the Dutch have weird monikas that I can only pronounce after a lot of blanquette and wouldn't dream of trying to spell.
Except for Jaap, the birthday boy, eating oysters with zoon, above - (that's not his name, that means his son) (so they tell me -)
Our Nel needs no introduction though :) Nor does dear Stan...
a sympa, convivial, musical, gourmet fun fest; many thanks to all:)
The storm broke in the night after a few very hot days, nice to have the garden watered and the temperatures cooled a little.
Bad news and good news from America - Barbara writes that Larry was hospitalised after collapsing at a party. Mercifully he's now well - the vargus nerve reacting to circumstances that can now be avoided.
Making him a cheap date, Barbara :)
