We had a really great weekend. You know the kind where Friday seems so far away you've already forgotten what you did?
Apart from the usual boring housework, Saturday was good and then Saturday evening we went to Timothy's birthday bash - 40 years old (twin). It was so nice seeing the "kids" we've know since they were around 5 years old, Samantha popped in, in between her celebrations and we all missed Sion & Tiana who couldn't make it. I have one teensy, weensy criticism, don't people dance at parties any more?? We used to pump up the volume and dance the night away, now it seems you keep the music on medium and pump up the chatter. Oh well.
On Sunday my cousin Brian and his wife came to lunch, they're out on holiday from the UK and we hadn't seen them for a good few years. Lucky them, they booked in to a B&B in Camps Bay and because they're the only guests they were put into the penthouse apartment. It was so very good to see them, Samantha and the kids came over, for some reason Timothy was a little tired so they couldn't make it.
The icing on the weekend was watching Slumdog Millionaire last night, Oh WOW what a good story, everything about the movie was good, those Oscars were well deserved and I'll certainly watch it again, a star in the DVD collection.
So, despite the recession we had a fire in the fireplace, the house was toasty warm and we were sheltered from the rainstorms. We are truly blessed.
Oh sweet child of mine...

Glad you had a good weekend. I agree about dancing at parties. To me, that is what makes a party fun. The best parties I have had have usually been New Years bashes where we have all danced the night away, young and old, to a variety of music, until the early hours.
Ditto on Slumdog Millionaire by the way. xxx
dancing the night away is the only way to party properly. perhaps we should arrange a dance. have not watched slumdog. too scared it might upset me baby woes like vreature that I am.
