red carpets and palm trees

At the wonderful Palm House in Liverpool's Sefton Park the other weekend for a stupendous family 'do'.

my first entrance on a red carpet

and so spectacular inside

and you're wondering when all the people will arrive . . .

for the most amazing party ever

with speeches for the birthday girl

 great dance moves from Norman Killon, former DJ at the legendary Erics

 and incredible music from The Christians

A magical night and this is how it looked as we wended our way home
