I love the camper van, complete with a road tax disc!. A classic.I was banned from bringing penguins to a wedding once. This was a stuffed Tux, not a tux. It was the Linux mascot at the time, and they'd been to several weddings amongst our friendship group already. In fact one couple issued formal invitations, place settings and a cuddly toy fish each.
One (former) friend wanted her wedding to be extremely pretentious and serious and stipulated "absolutely no penguins". So Tux stayed in the car park, sitting on the dashboard of our camper van.

Hubby subtly wore this tie, but we reckoned the bride would be too preoccupied to notice, and the guests who spotted it would just chuckle to themselves.
What we hadn't imagined was that the wedding reception would involve an excruciatingly pretentious ceremony of bubbly drinking with a string quartet on the lawn, and that the couple and all the guests would process from the hotel to the lawn, through the car park, right past the van with cheerful
penguin in full view through the windscreen...

Edit: no thunder on the south coast either but we have a refreshing breeze today
Glad you had a nice time @goodybags. The tea looks lovely.Happy Monday, a Len from me today (I did wake up at 3:30 for a bathroom visit and see a HS but was half asleep and didn’t know how to screenshot on my new phone, I’ve Googled it and now I know)
Mrs @goodybags & I went out for afternoon tea yesterday, as one of her work friends treated us
good news the treats didn’t spike my BS to much, we ate all the sandwiches, although I could only manage my scone & a single lemon meringue cake
my wife’s scone and the remaining cakes are in the fridge
Looking at the photo, was just thinking to myself my floral shirt matched the willow pattern china - kinda’ like the new Reading football kit
sunny & slightly cooler here today, I’m still trying to decide if I will go to work in shorts or trousers, but as don’t have any appointments until this afternoon and one this evening, might go for a quick swim, because now I can be more flexible with my work hours.
Have a Marvellous Monday
