Family lunch
Thirteen of us sat down to lunch - all from various branches of my slightly complicated family. 
We dined well and we thank both Jenny and Ruth for making it all possible.
Young C tucked into his beef and veg.
I didn't take lunch time pictures until we got to the pudding stage.
By this time children were ready for play again.
Then it was present time - making it feel like Christmas all over again.
Otto, who did not have a birthday, had a sort of fuzzy felt clock.
And Bill, who is almost ready for another birthday, received a book, which Sue insists is his last year's birthday present.
Felix took himself off to play with the bricks.
Granny Sue shares a cat book with young C.
Young C with admiring uncle and aunt.
Before lunch we wandered out into the garden - warm enough to be comfortable again today. People played and talked.

By this time children were ready for play again.
Otto is wearing is ever present helmet - or pudding basin to you and me.
Then it was present time - making it feel like Christmas all over again.
This was Roger and Sue's chance to give presents that have been waiting for this opportunity.
Felix had a box with a tub of bricks.
Otto, who did not have a birthday, had a sort of fuzzy felt clock.
And Bill, who is almost ready for another birthday, received a book, which Sue insists is his last year's birthday present.
