My daughter's girlfriend's grandfather has just turned 90.
A party was arranged to celebrate.
He thought it was just going to be a few close relatives but his daughter planned a surprise
by inviting relatives and friends that he hadn't seen for many years.
I didn't know him and had never met him but he was pleased to meet someone from the old country.
He's a lovely chap, originally a Londoner from Hackney, spelt with a capital A!
It was held at a winery in the Swan Valley.
A mere 25 minutes from Perth, Swan Valley is a must for your "To visit" list.
World-class wineries, breweries, distilleries,
gourmet artisan goods such as chocolatiers, honey producers, ice cream and nougat makers,
handcrafted wares, bustling markets, vibrant studios,
and superb eateries make for excellent days out.
The birthday boy was thrilled to see so many people turn out to help him celebrate.
We had a great time, and afterwards a few of us went on to another winery to sample a few wines.
Well you have to don't you!
