Last weekend we were all invited to a garden party in the style of Downton Abbey.
Val and Dave graciously provided the garden even though most stayed inside for the afternoon. I'm sure the fact that all the food and champagne was inside had no influence at all. And the food! It was delicious, and it was coming out of our ears by the end of the afternoon, cunningly served in finger-sized portions that made you forget just how much you'd actually eaten.
Everyone stepped up and dressed as close as they could to the style of the popular TV show. For some, it was probably a chance to open up the old steamer trunk in the attic so they could reuse the clothes they never thought they'd have a chance to wear again ;-)
Thanks to Phillipa for sending through some photos that she took at the event as well.
