My lovely eldest son and his fiancée treated us to afternoon tea at the Ritz. It was an amazing experience! The sandwiches, cakes and scones just kept coming. Of course there was jam and clotted cream for the scones. We chose Royal Ritz tea which was so nice we managed two pots! You couldn't finish all the food, because every time you did the waiter filled it back up! The Ritz is so beautiful, but I have eaten so much cake! But now excuse me I am feeling a little sick, must be coming down with something!!!
that does indeed look yummy and a belated happy birthday to you!

What a lovely son you have . . . this would be a heavenly afternoon for a sweet lover, like myself. You must have had a ball:)
ReplyDeleteI see that Gill says . . . belated birthday . . . I did not know.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY . . . DEAR FRAN!
and many, many more.
Your blogging sister, Connie :)
How fabulous ... mine's the one with raspberries on! Happy belated Birthday, glad it was amazing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment over on mine, and loved the story about your Grandad ... I just love that sign xxx
Happy birthday, Fran!!! What a lovely treat indeed. I didn't realise it was your birthday, but of course, you cannot keep that a secret for long. What a wonderful treat! I would LOVE to go to the Ritz - just for the atmosphere! The food, of course, looks divine, and...ahem...if you are feeling a little sick, might that not be something to do with (how do they say it in genteel circles?) a surfeit of food that was just a trifle rich? :) Lots of love and best wishes for the coming year, dear! xx
ReplyDeleteWell that does look nice and what a lovely birthday treat. I like cake but only a little so might find this a little too much. Did you have a dance as well?
ReplyDeleteThose cakes look amazing, it must have be a great experience. I was looking at your to do list yesterday and saw this was on your list.

Belatedly dear Fran many congratulations on your recent birthday and am sure that the majority of us would have over eaten at The Ritz too :)
ReplyDeleteLooks great, Very elegant. I have recently discovered a love of hot tea late in life. The cakes look wonderful.

What a lovely treat - happy belated birthday - it's mine tomorrow, but it will be quiet, just me and the cats.
ReplyDeleteHi Fran, tea at the Ritz sounds fantastic... Wonder if they do any vegan cakes?
