First off, Marla's birthday weekend was a success. We did indeed go bowling on Saturday, followed by watching the second half of the Wales-England rugby match. Then in the evening we went to F.east, which is a pan-asian restaurant. There is only one option there now (it used to have a conventional menu), which involves a comprehensive buffet for £14.50. All you can eat buffets are generally wasted on me because I tend not to have a very big appetite at any given meal-time but I was determined to get my money's worth this time and I think I pulled it off. Then after the meal we played quite a few hands of poker (Texas Hold-Em) at Andy & Fi's - a good evening indeed.
On Tuesday (Marla's actual birthday) we had some cake at my parent's and then, after dinner, went to Rachael's flat for some pancakes. That was a good evening too!
Marla's presents included two necklaces, a book about cats (and what they think of humans) and gift vouchers for a health spa place. I gave Marla the complete third series of "24" on DVD. The first and second series were on BBC but since then it has moved to Sky, which means we are unable to see it. So, anyway, we have started watching the DVDs and are quite hooked. We watched three episodes last night and I suspect we will watch at least one more tonight.
