(moderately) High Tea

Yesterday afternoon we launched our Community Day with an afternoon tea. It was FUN! Some guests dressed for the occasion (note the hats, gloves, stoles and flowers in the hair) and many did their best poshy accent... well... here and there during proceedings.

Her Maj., Q.E.II was disappointed not to be there to launch the event but she sent her best wishes and may turn up for the odd game of cards on a Wednesday when Phil is out of town.

It was great to have one of our expats join us (in her fallout chair!!!) from the Nursing Home where she now lives. Apparently, she received the invitation and was determined to come so she hired an access cab! Good for you Ruth!

Here are some piccies and the invitation we snail mailed to everyone: [click on the invitation for a bigger view]
