Didn’t seem quite right this year when the world is still upside down and my friends in Ukraine are having a shit time to host a big birthday dinner (last years was fun, we played musical chairs.
What an exceptionally wonderful thing to do , but with you India it doesn’t surprise me . I am sure the guests had a fantastic time. I would love to share an afternoon with such surroundings and company . Happy belated birthday. X
A wonderful account! Thank you. Please share some still shots of the tea table if you have them - for those of us who are china fanatics. (I always pause and zoom in on the china in every movie)
Fabulous! Absolutely fabulous account of a crazy and frenetic day, which turned out beautifully — rain and all. There’s always something to celebrate and you did it well.
What a lovely description of happy frantic preparations. Sounds like loads of fun. Now I just want photographs of cucumber sandwiches and a family recipe or two of some tea-time treats!
Amazing, as usual. Your description brought to life a chaotic, wonderful day that was very British including the rain and compassionate on many levels. How special for all. Bravo and a very happy birthday. You and my husband share birth dates so much celebration mirrored on this side of the pond too.
You always reach out to others in the most unexpected ways, India, and while in a perfect world you wouldn’t have felt so frantic, I hope you know your guests would have been enthralled no matter what you did. Happy Belated Birthday to one of my heroines! xoxox, B
What a special thing to do-I am sure a wonderful time was had by all. Sounds like you had quite the morning, too, but I am not surprised you pulled it off with the utmost grace. Happy Belated Birthday🩷🎂
