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?

All my birthdaysare fairly crap. I was due to be born on the auspicious day of Christmasness but managed to hold on until 3rd January. Obviously my mistake.
For the last 31 years I have been forced to be grateful for being given presents at Christmas, whilst being told "This is your Birthday present as well". That, and never having a Birthday cake. The theory was that there was no need to make another cake when we still had half a mountain of Crimbo cake to plough through.
Fucksocks.
There was the occasion when I put myself in hospital on my 19th Birthday and missed out on a theatre trip to London to see the mighty Philip Schofield in "Joseph"...I am not sure whether spending the night vomiting the lining from my stomach into a small cardboard dish was better, or worse...
First post! W/y/h and I would apologise for length...but I'm a girl. I'll apologise for width instead.
