Jacket Potatoe Themed Party

After my recent rants (see Not a Happy Bunny and Charity begins at home?) I am pleased to say that the weekend was very positive.

Saturday David and I went to Chrys’ for a Jacket Potatoe Themed Birthday Party. The idea is that you ask guests to bring drinks and fillings for jacket potatoes and you provide the potatoes (cooked of course!). I was the designated driver and David had a few drinks. It was funny to hear him rabbiting on in the car, tipsy on the way home.

The party was wonderful, lots of people in attendance busily socialising, the fire in the garden (maintained by Simon), plenty of magic tricks and games. It was one of the best parties I have attended in a long time (then again, Chrys’ always are!).

Sunday (today) I had to leave David’s quite early :(. I had plans to meet up with my friend C to help her look at moving a business idea on. I was pleased to be able to help her and her business partner out. We first looked at the background to the idea, what they had and then what they needed to do next in order to move it forward. I helped them complete an Action Plan which is timescaled. I will be meeting up with them again in a month in order to see where they are up to.

I seemed to have given them a fresh dose of motivation and direction on what to do next. I am glad that I have been able to help a friend out. I have often thought we should have a National help a friend out day.

I am nackard after last weeks busy week and the busy weekend. So that’s all for now folks.
