Buffet for three special birthdays

Today we celebrated three special birthdays: Happy Birthday wishes go to Pauline Millington, Pauline Tierney and Tom Doran.

A lovely buffet was laid out for everyone to enjoy. In the middle of the table was a cake with sunshine and a rainbow on. It even had sparklers!

Thanks go to Tomlyn Caterers for the food and to Carol Holden for bringing the cake.
