My first post! I'm still trying to get the hang of adding photos - have probably added too many, but couldn't resist it. Sunday 30 December was Dave & Elaine's 40th wedding anniversary - Ruby!(hence the red roses) The good weather we've had this Christmas in Cape Town continued to hold, and we had a lovely brunch at the Kirstenbosch Garden's tearoom to celebrate.
We managed to convince one of the waiters to take a snap of us all enjoying a champagne toast - so from clockwise: Jules & I are in the foreground are with our backs to the camera, Glenda to the left of Jules, Pam, Lloyd, Chris, Elaine & David. 
As Pam so seldom posts any pics of herself, I thought I'd post this lovely one of the Sykes-Rubidge family enjoying tea-for-two. That's Sarah on the left, and Jess to the right of Lloyd. 
Sarah & Jess both had a ball exploring the gardens around the tearoom on their own, and coming back to report what they'd found - fairy paintings in the art gallery, dragonflies in the bushes, and bringing back a few (illegal!) flowers for Granny & Grandpa from their explorations. Stirling was feeling a bit under the weather, so Jules was helping to keep him & Sarah enthralled for a while with the help of Brown Bear, while their moms chatted in the background.

Wow, 40 years!! Please give them our best wishes for many many more!!
Also, the pic of Pam was the only one that didn't seem to work, if you could try that again, that would be great.
And what are *you* up to, Gill??
