Netta@90!


Special Macintyre day as Netta, Carole's mum, celebrates her 90th birthday – doing brilliantly after a major operation last year. 


Netta: a wonderfully bright and energetic 90!

 At least 70 birthday cards – amazing how few doubles there are, 
which just shows that many more people are living into their nineties



 
Netta with Hughie, the only surviving brother of 
Jimmy, Netta's husband who died in 2011 aged 97

 Our party of 15 had a very good and enjoyable 
I took the excellent lentil soup made with 
ham stock followed by a venison steak – properly rare 

Newtonmore Golf Course – links with a view!
Great weather today!



 Lunches can be a serious business!

 ... but not always




Decorated cake from Harry Gow, excellent bakers in Inverness
