Sunny Weekend…

Saturday evening was Madeleine’s aunt Sylvia’s Seventieth Birthday, so the occasion was celebrated in a private dining room at the Sheraton.

Drink, buffet, cake, etc.  -who could complain!?

Sunday was nice and sunny, so we went down to Madeleine’s studio and rearranged it, with some new shelving, etc. Still some different tables etc. needed to replace the existing hodge-podge, but that’s for another day! After that, we actually got some sun, having a very late brunch at a nearby Turkish cafe called Cafe Truva. Meze for 2, very nice, and filling!
Then up to the National Galleries to squeeze in a second look at a couple of small exhibitions, only to discover that they both finished last week! Grr! Took a quick look at the new art replacing them – some of it was very good, but I resisted (fairly easily) giving much thought to a little piece I liked a lot which was only (!) £300…  Up to the Meadows and Peter’s Yard, where we sat and had icecream – vanilla & blueberry for me, hazlenut & raspberry (or maybe strawberry) for Madeleine.
Then home for a quiet evening…
