Fourteen already! Where is the time going??? Happy Birthday Hannah!!!
Hannah's Birthday was on Friday and after much consultation, it was decided to split the celebrations over the Friday evening with friends from Longfield and then lunch with friends from Heathfield on the Saturday afternoon.
Pizza Express in Pinner was the venue and a private dining area was set aside for Hannah and eight friends. This was a perfect setup as the girls could relax in their own space and have maximum fun without "irritating" other diners! Sinéad and I left the girls to it and had a quick walk around downtown Pinner before retiring to the pub beside Pizza Express to while away the time. At or near the allotted time we wandered back to see how the girls are getting on and they seemed to be at the coffee stage. Other parents started to arrive and I organised and paid the bill and we patiently waited for the girls to finish and the advertised 4pm finish was about right.

Pinner at dusk is so atmospheric and I couldn't resist shooting the panoramic below as we waited for the "Ladies that Lunch" to finish! Hannah and the girls seemed to enjoy themselves and I think a few of the other parents have taken note and this could happen again for other birthday celebrations . . .

Pictures were shot with the Canon G9 (top birthday cake pic) and the Ricoh GR Digital, for the rest - mainly because of its wider (28mm) lens.
