Birthday lunch

---

Because he felt birthdayish, Dad celebrated his 85th birthday with lunch at the Lowfield Arms, just the other side of Welshpool. They do really nice meals there, and I like the place because none of the furniture matches - some round tables, some rectangular, and lots of different chairs so you can choose a comfy one. We took his presents there to open, though Mum gave him a clock for the garden which he left at home.

View from Long Mountain
We drove back over the hill, and the view was spectacular, with the hills all snowy (still). But I don't think it shows too well in the picture.

Happy Birthday Uncle Roy
looks like you all had a lovely lunch - and what a beautiful place to eat!! Can we have a picture of the clock too sometime??

Great to see..
you all having a good time! Gwen's meal looks good - no wonder she ate it all! Roy looks as young as ever - was he really born in 1925? A clock in the garden - how does that work ? Not a sun-dial (haha)? Maybe solar-powered?

clock
when its up out in the garden, I'll get a picture of it. I think it does the temperature and the air pressure too. It should really have an alarm to remind busy gardeners about cup of tea time for those indoors!
