Birthday

Last night was lovely. I highly recommend the food at the Velo lounge. It's not the cheapest in Bath, but it was hardly expensive and was really tasty. And they did a cheese platter for dessert, with proper chuntney. Even better, it had pirate cheese (Chornish Yaargh). I was a happy well fed Ailsa-chan.

Thanks to everyone who did come. There was a lovely crowd of people willing to while away an evening with me and I really apprciated seeing everyone who came. It was a shame it was quite noisy, but I table hopped so I could speak with everyone.

Thanks for all my presents too, especially to Mili-chan, who wins the universe for sending me the most enormous Nemo plushie in the post! See below:

I have been hugging it all evening, but it's a bit too big to sit on my lap while I type!

Dear LJ...

Is it wrong to have put serious consideration to cosplaying Nemo?

Another update

Wangst isn't over yet, I'm afraid.
