40....

Not me, thankfully ;-) I've a ways to go yet...

My friend from gym, Kristina, had her fortieth birthday party today. I was a bit nervous about going, not least because it was 33 degrees at 7pm and I couldn't decide what to wear! 

I picked my friend Lawrence up as he knew where it was, and we went together. They have a huge backyard, and hired a marquee, a wood-fired pizza street vendor etc. 

It was nice to catch up with some gym friends who I hadn't seen for a little while due to all our various injuries! 

Around 10pm, after the obligatory birthday speech, the emcee decided we'd all play a game. It was at this point that Lawrence and I vacated the marquee....

Unfortunately we couldn't hide, and we were called out, but we didn't cowtow to the peer pressure! Just as well, as the game was all in two lines, with a key on a string that had to be passed down the girl's top, then down the boy's trousers...... Hilarious to watch though and luckily Kristina's team won- see extra. 

It was a good night, and I was glad I went. 

I need to have more fun. 

* They had a great sax player who accompanied all the tracks- he was fab!
