What an exhausting day it was yesterday. I was asked if I could help out at work, just a few hours. Hah! A few hours, I worked from nine am until seven pm. Got home just in time for a quick turnaround, I managed to eat a meal, shave and shower, get dressed up and go to a fabulous 40th birthday party.
The birthday boy is a local DJ come singer, whose preferred choice is that of the crooners, and very good at it he is too. Whilst many dressed in suave sharp suits of the period, I knew it would be a hot night, both metaphorically and literally. I wore my deep blue floral shirt, topped with the hat that Esther made. That hat attracted a lot of complimentary remarks. The lady is such a talent.
Karl, the birthday boy, must have quite a cellar judging by the number of bottles of wine he received, but although it's a tad boastful to say so, the way his eyes lit up when he opened his gift from Tina, was a treat to behold. He has often commented on my Route 66 shirt, now he has one of his own, but he can get his own hat.
And this was my choice of shirt for the evening, I also wore the new blue trousers that Tina had altered, reshaped and restored.
