Birthdays
My best birthday so far was my 30th, when I held a Polish Bear Hunting evening in some woods - everyone dressed up in hunting gear, ate a Polish hunting stew round a big fire and then, armed with torches, ran out to find the foil-wrapped chocolate bears I'd hidden in the trees.
My worst so far was my first at university - my birthday was the first official day of term, so I thought there'd be loads of people there to have fun with. No, Cambridge is so posh nobody actually turns up on the first night. I got very drunk with the barman.
What extremes of birthdays have you had?

Long Dong Silver is right. January birthdays are rubbish. Mine falls about 2-3 days before everyone gets paid which generally means that the presents are shite, no-one comes out for drinks and i've got no money to submerge my sorrows. I can only wonder if i'd experience a better treatment were my birthday to fall on a more financially agreeable time of year. i.e. a week later. Probably not.
