Emirates Club Friday and mojitos curry

Friday was my favourite type- an early walk with the dog followed by a late morning journey to the Emirates Club for some golf and an afternoon by the pool. I did a spot of tidying up in the garden first, which for Bougainvilla means tying bricks to the branches and lobbing them over the concrete perimeter wall (using the prop to dangle them over). One day I'll hear ouch from the other side... Maddy's friend Georgia had been at ours for a sleepover, hence the pic. Jack and Amelia dipped out from the club and stayed at the villa. The weather is really starting to get hot, the increase in the heat after lying for 5 mins is very noticeable. We had guests coming over for Liz's signature curry- Brian Elaine and friends Cath and Dave. I made Mojitos for starters which went down well but took their toll later. Elaine crashed out early and had to spend the night in our guest room- first time a dinner guest hasn't made it home! Great evening, dug out all the old LPs and gave them a spin, a lot of singing and merriment, but a bit hangoverish...
