Grand tea party update

(Illustration of the Mad Tea Party by John Tenniel)

 

Cakes, sandwiches, scones and biscuits were sold and eaten.

Tea was poured and sipped.

The weight of the beautifully iced fruit cake was estimated.

Raffle tickets were bought.

The soft toy Meerkat's (yes, from that TV advert) name was guessed.

£2150 was raised.

 

Between the four of us here, we scooped two bottles of wine, a bottle of champagne and a candle set in the raffle.

Oh yes, and the Gorgeous Girlie won the Meerkat.  His name?  Marmaduke.
