Cindy's dad, Maurice, was 70 on Friday and we all met up for a surprise meal. He knew he was going out with Mandy and David, but also there were Amy and Tom, Janyne, Steve, Christopher (who's 20th birthday it was), Matthew and Cindy and I. Maurice was very surpirsed and very pleased!

Jayne had organised a fantastic gift for him. It's a voucher for him to be able to drive a F1 racing car. Maurice seemed pretty overwhelmed by this, and couldn't wait to be able to do it. Photos to follow once he does it!

We had a nice meal in a pub near to where Pat and Maurice live - followed by coffee and more drinks back at their house. Didn't get into bed intil almost 2! Then drove back home this morning.
