BirthdaysMy 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?

Someone I know...Was born on 17th June. Doesn't sound special, does it? Well in Germany it was a bank holiday.
So she could always have big parties the day before every year cos the very next day everyone had the day off. Always. For eternity.
Only it was a day to remember that Germany is separated by a wall. The wall went and the bank holiday as well. In the year she turned 18. It was a Sunday luckily.
