What A Great Birthday Party!
Well, yesterday was Sy's birthday, and a day of partying had been slowly hatched over the last few weeks. Footy in the early afternoon, a quick dash home, a bite to eat, and then more drinking 
So, footy first. And Stevenage beat Daggers 1-0. Disappointing as we'd bet it'd be Daggers winning at half time, and Stevenage winning at full time. It was also a chance for Nige and Ian to see a lower league team play, since they're more used to Hull City and the bigger game 
Quick dash home, and straight back out for 7pm and drinks at the Marquis. I'd managed to talk a few people out for the night, many friends I've not seen for ages. So the partying began
An Elvis impersonator at the Marquis had us make a choice and move on down to the Proverbial. And there I met up with some of Jules friends and ended up chatting away 'til well after closing. It was great catching up with so many people I've not seen in ages, finding out what's been happening, and where people are these days. More nights out are in the planning, I've got all your numbers now
A quick taxi home (including being stopped by the Police, and being told, "Keep your speed down mate!"), pizza ordered, and the late night partying and drinking commenced. The neighbours are away for Easter, so noise wasn't a problem
Just waking up proper now, having awoke at 8:30am this morning in a bit of a daze. My bruv, Nige, has just finished making a monster fry-up, so I'd better get off and eat
I have to say I've not enjoyed myself so much in ages. And to have so many people I've not seen for such a long time around made it even sweeter.
Kev doesn't know where to start, having stayed off the beers all week...
Another opporunity for photographic proof that Sy does come out for beers when my bruvs are down....
And an earlier shot of Nige, so impressed with the quality of play at Boro that he'd fallen asleep in the stand...
