Cold hard cash

My big brother came for coffee today. We sat outside together (until the volume of people streaming in forced me to abandon him) and talked. He's just sort of retired but starts a new job on Tuesday. And he wouldn't have anything to eat because he's on some weird diet that doesn't allow cake.
Many a family came today and there was not one particular thing they favoured. We made mountains of sandwiches, quiche, ploughman's, ham salad and paninis. And we had to cook another ham. I think that's the fourth day in a row.
Ice cream delivery comes tomorrow (we're out of mint choc chip and are low on the other 4 flavours) and with luck more pressés too (no ginger beer or elderflower left).
Two little girls cleaned tables with their face wipes at going home time and helped me put the tables to bed. Their mum sent them in for their wages - a Just Scrummy ice lolly.
