An awesome surprise trip away for the 50th birthday festival with my amazing friends 🤍

The Treehouse board game cafe for lunch – 750 games!
Which got quite competitive!
Then onto Locksley Distillery for a gin making experience – which was brilliant!
Lots of tasting! Well, it would be rude not to!
Gin drunk!
Flash Mob! It was hilarious! 🤣
GAIL IS 50
Then onto Tsuki, japanese restaurant
In a private dining room, with a sunken table and we had to take off our shoes to go in!

Part Two of Birthday Eve – Appleby Castle

I wanted to wake up in a castle on my 50th birthday! (Lucys idea!) So we are in the State room with two four poster beds! Ours dates from 17th century and there is 16th century tapestry on the walls instead of wallpaper! Something older than me! The most amazing place I’ve ever stayed!
The girls first 5 course fine dining experience!
Soup for the first course
‘Chicken Kiev’ – chef’s nod to Ukraine
The sea bass in a chowder was divine, despite the fact I’m not a fan of mussels!
Duck!
Chocolate heaven dessert!

My 50th birthday party at No.43!

Team photo but 5 lovely ladies missing from this that came later on
Top barman!
And his brother!
Let the games commence!
And so too the dancing 🤣
Licence to kill or just the bar license meant we needed to leave?!
The walk home was interesting! Gone are the days of bringing a traffic cone home after a drunken night out! 🤣
Because we all need to come back to ours for a bottle of champagne at 1am!

Alchemilla – just wow! Our meal was amazing and absolutely deserved its Michelin star!

Yes Chef! (Alex Bond 🙌🏻)
My favourite course – artichoke, koji, truffle
Lobster
This dessert was out of this world – toasted kombu, luchuensis vinegar, vanilla oil. (Basically seaweed ice cream!)
