To dance, or not to dance, that is the question ...

We had a lovely evening on Saturday. The three of us were invited to a colleague's 60th birthday party. We weren't quite sure what to expect but knew food would be involved, and Indian food at that so no question that we weren't going to accept the invitation!

The party started slowly as we had to be there early to surprise the 'Birthday Boy'. By the time the guest of honour arrived we were already feeling more party-like after a glass of wine at the bar!

Super food in abundance and then a few speeches. It was a lovely atmosphere and we were made to feel very much at home by the family. We had Bollywood movies playing on large screens in the background and an Indian DJ who was playing some great music.

I'm not usually very keen on large parties, preferring to socialise with a few close friends over a meal but the music was so lively and everyone so welcoming that we all joined in dancing. Good job nobody had a video camera!

I would love to think I looked as elegant as the ladies in the picture, and indeed as elegant as the ladies at the party, but I think I would be deluding myself. Nevertheless it was great fun.
