Engagement Party..


Beth, Alfie and I were invited to an engagement party at the weekend. Our neighbours who moved into the neighbourhood just two months before us are getting married next September. The venue was a football club about 45 minutes drive away, it took us two hours! Beth and I have an interesting approach towards getting anywhere. It's called the "Oh it'll be easy to find!" approach. It basically involves getting in the car with no local knowledge and driving using nothing but sense of smell!.... eventually we arrived and had a great time. We were pleased that we made the effort with the neighbours as they seem like a really nice couple, its a shame like most people and their neighbours we see very little of them as we're all off doing our own thing.

It was interesting to hear the speeches and the announcement of the six bridesmaids and six groomsmen... which is quite common here. Alfie proved to be a very useful subject of conversation and looked very smart in his new "big boy" clothes and trainers.
