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?

I think one of my best was my 19thMy mum took me, my sister,stepdad,nanny and uncle out for a 'suprise' dinner which I had no idea what it was in the evening. After what felt like 2 hours driving we came across a castle. Turns out We were to have a Tudor style banquet with 5 courses which were served and ment ot be eaten traditionaly(one was just a slab of meat and potatos you had to eat with a dagger). There was entertainment, singing, and my discovery of mead. I loved the stuff and drank everyones as few of my family liked it. Fell asleep as soon as i got in the car, it was cool.
