Fork Handles on the Birthday cake
Saturday night was party night! This was a bit of a surprise as I thought Jo was taking me out for a meal to celebrate my impending birthday. However I nipped out to pick up the babysitter and arrived back to find an unfolding party at Macdonald Towers, Awesome! Friends turned up from all over with the necessary components of a party, sadly my friend G never made it as his car went Kaput in Cheltenham and he and ALL the curry had to be rescued by the AA.
Great evening and I had a blast BUT you know you are getting older when there is one candle per decade rather than the more traditional 1 candle = 1 year approach :-)
Funniest moment:
The Rector and his good lady wife rang the doorbell and my 6 year old answered the door. He took one look at them and then shouted with great happiness and at several hundred decibels, "IT'S JESUS!"
Presents:
Well chuffed with various presents including the 'Lycra fund' to get some new cycling kit (thanks). Most intriguing present? Well being *a bit* of a Scrabble addict I was delighted to get a new UBER Scrabble set. It's called Super Scrabble and has a board with twice the number of squares that extends out to Quadruple word score. Kind of Scrabble on steroids ....... anyone fancy a game?
