100 years party


I've written a lot about parties in the past so it's time i wrote about our party. I tend to write about things from long ago so I guess this will come up more and more as time goes on. Must be something to do with how the brain works as you get older the older bits of memory start to resurface.
Hilary and I had this big party since we are both 50 this year, a sort of 100 years party. Not sure if it was on exactly the 100 year day and can't be bothered to work it out. About 30 people came from abroad (Britain and France). They were almost all people that we have both known for a long time and all connected in some way to the British climbing scene. We had planned a party for the saturday night but we ended up partying every night for a week.
It was great to see old friends again. Wonderful to know such a great bunch of people who came all the way to Norway and ended up doing the dishes at our party. Hilary organized pretty much all of it and I was supposed to do the food. Almost managed but not quite, was very touching the way everyone simply rallied round and got on with it.
First time I've danced to Lynyrd Skynyrd since the Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute band played the dale Kroa 12 years ago. The picture is not of us dancing to this track, the movements were probably to fast to capture on a digi camera.
