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?

Nothing too exciting really..Worst might have been spent up in Dundee commissioning a system I'd written (it worked, hurrah) and spending the night by myself, in a hotel, with a book. Par-fscking-tay.. Alternatively one of the years in my twenties that I can't actually remember.
Not sure about the best, other than fun parties as a very young child, there have been a number of small but very pleasant restaurant based birthday events. Quite liked my 30th, after I'd got over the prior fortnight of 'oh shit I'm going to be 30', sister baked me a fab cake too.
Next year is going to be good.. There will be loads of friends I'm inviting, it's a Friday and partying somewhere will happen!
