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?

on my fourth birthday
our house got struck by lightning. at my party, we'd been playing sardines, and had all gone into the dining room for cake and the like, and the storm started up. sarah b started crying, we thought it was cos she was a wuss but it was cos her postman pat hat fell off. it hit the chimney stack, and loads of my brother's bedroom wall fell in, covering where a few of us had been hiding about ten minutes earlier.
i have a photo of me with a fireman and a huge smile :)
