The farewell party

[wiseheart]

So, we had this party in our flat (53 square metres, including balcony!), to say farewell to one colleague who's retiring and one who simply goes to work in another school. There were 8 people, plus Mum and me, and it was great fun, with cherry/cheesecake squares, walnut/plum jam slices, cheesy buns, beer and fruit juice in great quantities. The guests stayed 5 hours long.

We had the official farewell encounter at school, which was less fun, but it gives me the opportunity to post pics of one farewell gift I haven't posted yet. It went to a third colleague, also retiring.

So, this is a small (paper) travelling bag, plus a card:



The back side of the bag and the card opened look like this:



MMM found the gift thoughtful and was very pleased with it.
