Mollie's 80th Birthday

Sim and Sandy booked me for Sim's mum Mollie's 80th Birthday on Saturday. There were around 35 people at the party. All Mollie's family and friends. I had a great time with everyone and the magic went really well, Molly even managed to magic up a bottle of wine. She has promised to book me again for her 90th.

Louise and Michael's Wedding

I travelled to The Beech Hill Hotel in Windermere for Louise and Michael's wedding party on Friday 18th. I was there from around 7-45 and although I was supposed to finish at 10pm, it must have been a while later by the time I managed to get away. What an enthusiastic lot of friends you two have! I enjoyed myself tremendously.
