It's my birthday

Post by chrisoff »

Whoop!

:D

And despite going out for drinks after work (which included a bartender supplying lots of free cocktails as they were revamping their menu and wanted some feedback on the new ones) I don't have a hangover.

Which means I can go get a haircut then wander down to the international market and get lots of nice things for lunch.

Then tonight I'm going for a family dinner at probably the best Italian restaurant in the city.

Oh, and I might even have a new girlfriend after last night...

All in all this is a pretty good day.

Many Happy Returns, Chris, old chap! Have a dram for me!
Hope you get more mileage from the new girlfriend than the old one. :wink:

It's Chris's birthday
It's Chris's birthday
And we would like to wish him all the very best
It's Chris's birthday
It's Chris's birthday
And it's so nice to have you back to be our guest

At Chris's birthday
At Chris's birthday
We'd like to wish you all what you would wish yourself
On Chris's birthday
It's Chris's birthday
And it's so good to have you back from off the shelf
And it's so good to have...
You back from off the shelf...

It was indeed.

Man dinner was soooo good. Stufato di Funghi (mushrooms on toast) for starter then monkfish, king prawns and swordfish cooked in olive oil and tomato sauce
with olives, capers, chilly garlic and potatoes.

Annie, well I've got a bit to go before my half centure although my folks were reminding us with glee that we're only 3 years off the big 30 now. But they've both hit the 50 mark so I'll let them off with that.

The cat is doing good, completely overrun the flat now and I simply live to serve his every whim these days. My brother was round taking more photos last night after dinner so maybe I'll post some of them later on.

Congratulations Chris

And only a day late.

My birthday comes up on Tuesday. I expect dinner will be a little less tastey as I'll be driving to Maryland on my own.

59 for me.
