next entry21 Again!
Let them (i.e. me) eat cake!
Hehehehe, goodness, it only seems like yesterday when I turned 20 ;) and here I am today at the ripe old age of 21 yet again (plus or minus 7 years) ;)
Yes, it's my birthday today! Happy birthday me, and well done me on getting this far with out killing, maiming or irrevocably damaging myself (well if you discount the time I twatted my head on a school desk and knocked myself out). Anyway... :)
I get lots of cool pressies and cards ranging across the whole spectrum of edible goods to IT Gadgets and not least from Phil a rather exceptional Rally Driving Day Experience!! Get me!! hehehehe - I've been to these people before and did a 2 wheel drive car rally day, but this time I've hit the big time in my all time favourite GT4 car, a Subaru Impreza WRX! I can't wait!! All I have to do now is book it, and you know what, I'm gonna wait for the weather to get nice and ikky - I want mud, puddles, gravel, dirt n slidin!
Where's the pin?
Pressies opened and card displayed we have some nice french toast for breakfast (ok, so I had bacon and banana and maple syrup with mine as well, come on its my birthday!) we then head off into town as Phil has a hair appointment. So while he's getting sheared, I poke around the shops and pick up a few board games. Namely, Othello and Pass-Out.
We then have a toss up between going ice skating or visiting a garden centre which I know has some black bamboo and a variety of Acers, and decide the garden centre would be a good option and so we trot off to the Burford Garden Company, spend a small fortune on the plants we wanted and then head home.
We're off out for a chinese tonight, so after Richard arrives and we've had a few games of Sonic The Hedgehog (and a few drinkypoos) we get a taxi to town. I haven't had a chinese meal in ages and so was very impressed with the quality of the one we had, the Crispy Fried Beef was lovely. We then go to one of the local pubs for a drink and finally head home, but most definitely not bed! hehehe....
Arhhgh! His head won't stay up!
When we get home its time for more drinks and birthday cake and of course a party game or 2 ;) If you've followed the link to Pass-Out you will by now have realised that it is a drinking game, and a rather successful one at that ;) So after 1 bottle of wine, 4 bacardi breezers, 3 gin and tonics in the space of about 3/4 hour, plus all of what we'd had before we went out and whilst we were out, it was quite inevitable that we got very drunk very quickly hehehe, some of us slightly more than others - see the evidence! ;)
So it's Happy birthday to me! Happy birthday to me! Happy birthday, I'm getting really old.... Happy birthday to me!
