Kay with an umbrella on top of her head

Nick gets going with the barbecue.. and a can of strongbow

....and Pat gets going with the eating of said barbecue!

Mrs Murphy...  " I never have my picture taken."  well you have now!!!

Elaine made a special outing from her planet to come to the barbecue

Kay .. this time with adjustment to umbrella !

John.. poses with others for the camera!

The youngsters enjoy a bit of shade

... and others prefer a bit of sun

....and others do a little jig for the camera!

Meanwhile Nick continues to slave away at the barbecue

Murph at last stops running around and sits down!

...and i get Got with my own camera..... bah!

Quite what was going on here I'll never know but I've seen similar in some magazines when I was a teenager!

Kay decided that as the sun went in she'd do her Mother Teresa impression.. or was it Gandhi...????

and it all gets a bit too much for Nick who by this time had sizzled his last sausage and burnt his last burger

I decide it's time to take a picture of me  with a silly face on..... some say I've always got a silly face on!!!

Chris & John both looking as though they are waiting for the dentist!

and so the party goes on!

... and finally  the birthday boy himself..

Hope you enjoyed your party Aidan.... we certainly did!
