Fathers Day Card

48 internatioanl caravan club members came for tea and cake this morning. We poured their tea and had set out individual cakes on tea plates for them to choose. Lots of lovely comments on the apple shortcake. The church congregation came shortly after them which meant the main room and the conservatory were full just before lunch.
We tried out a mackerel paté ploughmans - very popular, but I don't think we'll be doing it all the time. Maybe it should make an occasional appearance. Like a Robbie.
Came close to running out of milk as the Afternoon Tea seekers descended but the cavalry arrived just in time.
One dad and his family came out on Fathers' Day for tea and cake. The kids (older teens) asked for this, that and the other. He waited for one of them to offer to pay. He even sighed and said he didn't have enough cash. "It's ok Dad," said the son after an interminable wait, "You can pay with a card."
