It's a tradition - every year, in the dark days of February, all the Blake Friedmann women go out for a Friday lunch together. This year there were 11 in total and the lunch was hosted at the lovely L'Absinthe restaurant tucked away in Primrose Hill. Beginning the lunch with a toast to our success and hard work, the restaurant was filled with laughter as all enjoyed each other's company and the delicious food. When the lunch concluded we only felt it necessary to go across the road to a rather nice upmarket pub appropriately named 'The Princess'. No one is quite sure what time the last celebrants left, but fun was had by all.

As the board above our table said, 'In victory you deserve champagne". We couldn't agree more.
