Last day at work (before annual leave)

My last day at work, Friday of last week, was my colleague's celebration of her 50th birthday. Her desk was decorated for her in the morning. This isn't a brilliant picture, but she got flowers, confetti and a balloon (above the photo).



We went out for lunch to Bread Street Kitchen which is a Gordon Ramsay restaurant. The meal was rather good. We were all served freshly baked bread. Then I had pork and fennel sausages, borlotti bean casserole, 'nduja, salsa verde with a side order of truffled brie mashed potato. Picture below and thoroughly recommended.



For dessert I had Praline parfait with Kent cherries, chocolate hazelnut crumb which was also excellent, but I forgot to take a picture.

Elle and Andy's Wedding

The legal part happened on Friday when I was in London. The large event was on the Saturday in a hall near Kew Gardens.

The afternoon started with the ceremony itself.



Then there was the cold buffet. Here's a picture of the bride and groom.



There was also wedding cake.



And finally music, dancing and chat.
