dad's 80th party

It was my dad's 80th birthday on sunday & we had a small celebration.   The sun shone & it was lovely to be able to sit in the garden all day.

His mobility scooter was used to have timed races around the garden - only one small "incident" but luckily he was indoors at the time so didn't see it - phew!!!

He was a woodwork & craft teacher for many years and his reaching such a milestone birthday has got me thinking about what he's made & materials he's worked with over the years.  I think that's probably the subject for another blog - I will try and write it tomorrow
