Farewell To Natalie

On Sunday, December 11th, it was time to say "Farewell" to Natalie as she was about to return to Keiran in London after a weddings trip to Australia. As is their custom, the Currey's put on an excellent feast for the farewell, and also a special birthday celebration for Tynan.

The eaters are busy consuming, while Cecelie insists that we eat all we can, and makes sure we have enough. Which is a given with the Currey's hospitality.

Tynan has blown out candles at his birthday during Nat's farewell to return to London; Jake looks on

Tynan, the birthday boy, blew the candles out before I could snap a photo! Jake looks a little stunned, perhaps at the speed of Tynan, or perhaps because he's never seen a birthday "cake" with cars on it.
