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?

Ruined holiday *and* birthday
My Grandma decided to die while we were on holiday in France, and I spent my 12th birthday driving back for the funeral
Best birthday? Maybe 19th - my mum took me to Iceland for the day on the day before, and on the birthday itself my Dad came out of hospital having been in for a couple of weeks
