Animal House

I've changed 'seek and ye shall find' to 'buy and ye shall be invited'. On Friday afternoon Andrew told me we had an invitation to a 'toga party' at the home of Lady Mary Fairfax on Sunday. Well, clearly I am too old to wear a toga, but equally clearly my Akira dress was exactly perfect. We had a little more trouble with Andrew, but it was all sorted in the end.

Of course only a few people were wearing togas (including the female but not the male waiting staff). There were some very glamorous people (and lots of expensive plastic surgery on show), the entertainment was good, but the food was dreadful. But it's not every day you get to swan around the lawn of an historic house on the water, so on balance it was worth it.
