We've made it!

Do you remember what you were doing exactly 40 years ago?

We do!

Play "Spot the difference" between the 2 photos.

And the answer is, "40 years".

Friends in England had sent us a fantastic bouquet of flowers and card.

In the village the committee of the Amas de Casa were preparing for their special day next weekend but after they had sold all their tickets we were treated to aperitivos at the bar.


After that it was time to get changed and go to El Convent, a restaurant in the next village, La Fresneda, for a meal paid for by friends here in Spain.

We've never been to this restaurant before - it's very expensive!

However, it is in a very nice setting...

...and nicely shaded from the sun...

...with nice tableware...

...and delicious dishes.

This certainly was a very special meal and will be remembered for a long time.

After the meal it was tea and coffee in the garden...

...then home for a relaxing jacuzzi.

A very special celebration and a wonderful day together!

Thanks to all of our friends who sent cards and other greetings and
special thanks go to those who made of of this possible.
