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?

More for my benefit than anyone elses
Worst
2002 - spent a dull day at an office job I hated, then went round to my parents and played Scrabble and watched a documentary about office jobs.
Best
2004 - Went to the cricket with a bunch of mates, got drunk, went to the pub, yet more mates showed up (some of whom travelled great distance), danced, drank more.
All I had to do was quit my job!
