A Birthday and a Retirement

by Bex

Way back in April, Nik and I went down to Durham to visit his parents for his Dad's retirement party.  The Friday also happened to be Nik's birthday.  We arrived to a veritable feast of yummy home cooked Indian food and pink fizz to celebrate!


Healthy version of samosas - made with filo pastry and baked :)

Gorgeous kofte meatballs


Rice, Muttar Paneer, Coconut Sweetcorn, Naan, 



The family photo we had done with a voucher they received last time we visited.
 Then, of course, there was birthday cake!







Flowers in our room - in a wedding favour jam jar from our wedding :)

On the Saturday night, we all got dressed up for the party in part of Durham university.  The venue was gorgeous.









There was more cake, a magician, beautiful flowers...  It was a lot of fun and we had a lovely meal.
