Birthday

Meat
Peri-peri chicken from Nandos

Drink
Too much. Started with beer, then a drop of whisky, then more beer, then more whisky. And the 'Desperado' tequila flavoured beer probably didn't help.

Company
Chris, Rob, Claudia, Ted, Ryan, Paul and Michelle, Ben and Emma, Dulcie and James, Erin and Ruscoe, Guy and Caroline, James, Fabien, Tom, Shane and Lore(sp?).

Headache in the morning
Headache in the afternoon. Little morning to speak of.

Memorable topics of conversation
Being a Guardian reader, tequila in beer - only the French, Bop-it, Flick-it, Pull-it, Twist-it, Spin-it, the best whisky ever, 'f*ck this book', why everything is shit, we-haven't-met-up-in-ages, getting old, 'Shut up Rob, if you value your carpets, shut up' (Sorry Rob).

Weather, Sport, TV
None. The whole thing was indoors, and without exercise of any kind. The TV remained off.

A good 8/10 I think - would have been improved by careful pacing, but definitely a good evening. Thanks to everyone who came, I had a great time.
