My Birthday.

As I'm sure you're all aware, Wednesday was my birthday. Thanks to everyone who sent me a card or present; tis much appreciated.

Here's a breakdown of events, I'll try and keep it brief.

Me and Debbie started the day nice and early with a fantastic breakfast of pineapple, strawberries, waffles and croissants. Debbie had baked me a cake too which took pride of place on the table.

Some of my presents
After breakfast and my present opening ceremony, Debbie, Greg and I headed out to the Secret Garden Tea Company to meet Jeff for Demi High Tea. We got a selection of tiny foods which were alarmingly filling and also a tea of our choice.

Greg's tentative steps towards a life of tea
After we had plunged into a state of hyperglycemia we took the bus to English Bay and got our scatch on on the beach.
Scatch!

Dru couldn't resist the pull of the scatch
Once we'd had our fill of physical exercise and had burned off at least some of the excess calories we headed to a nearby pub to start the birthday beers.

We left that pub and went to the Yaletown Brewery for some dinner then bought some booze and headed back to the house to get toasty so we could have a relatively cheap night out.
As our friends were taking it in shifts to celebrate my birthday, Dru left before dinner and Guido joined us at the house.
Our table, where all the drinking occurs
After a few drinks in the house we headed out to Doolins for some outside the house drinking and it was a fairly heavy, but decent night.

I felt a bit worse for wear on Thursday but managed to drag myself out the house for a Swap Scavenger Hunt which was pretty fun. My team came second but I still think the first place team cheated. Whatever.
Sorry this blogs been pretty poor. Can't really be bothered to elaborate on things en ce moment.
Maybe I'll add in some details later.
Have the weekend off so if I get all eloquent at any time I'll come improve it.
Think I'll maybe go swimming tomorrow and then there's another craft fair on Sunday which Debbie and I might go to.
Think I'll go sleep now though.
