Thanks to Josephine's reminder I attended the party and enjoyed it greatly. Studs was in fine form, still feisty, telling good stories. It was fun seeing all the guests, people I've been reading, watching and listening to for many years.
The cakes (one strawberry, one chocolate) were from Sweet Thang.
