Nice spread ... thanks to Kirsten, Hanneke and Mikkie's hard work

Real scones with clotted cream, assorted jams and lemon curd

A range of quiches .... although real men don't eat them (allegedly)

Carrot cake, cheese cake and chocolate cake .... plus some nice sarnies

We settle down for some of that good nosebag ... and a bit of chit chat of course.

Kirsten introduces the party .... Nigel is impressed

Big thanks from a grateful birthday boy!

Ooooh .... he's just spotted the lemon curd!

Guess who gets to graze first ? (no prizes)

We kick off with some excellent sarnies

This brand new geriatric is definitely up for tea and scones

Toby grabs the camera and photographs David and Maud

Karla and Aimee dig in, while David and Ploon chew the fat. Toby wastes no time at all and gets stuck in.

Marja is way ahead of the curve ....

Eric, Sonja and Anne discuss the relative merits of lemon curd and fruits of the forest. Hanneke is just high on life (as always).

This tight little knot of party-goers was busy putting the world to rights.

Eric has made his mind up - his vote goes to lemon curd (sensible man).

Wandert, Rob and Coreine look a little serious

Munch, munch, munch .....

Come on Marja .... smile!

Linda suppresses a giggle ... but the paparazzi were too quick for her!

Anyway, Nigel thoroughly enjoyed his cream tea 60th birthday party ... so thanks a bunch to all those involved!
