It's my birthday on Thursday.

[Annie]

What shall I do to celebrate? My birthdays are usually lonely affairs, I live away from my family and I don't have a significant other, so it can have a tendency to pass by. I'm also cursed that something really shitty always seems to happen on or around the day, although touch wood last year was ok. I have friends of course, but I don't want to go out and get trollied, as that increases the chances of something shit happening.

I have the day off work, but I'm in work the day before and after, so I can't go away too far. I had planned to take myself on a sexy minibreak to the beach, but it aint happening.

Suggestions welcome on a napkin shoved under my door.

And not a hobby day, hobbys off the menu til my back gets better!

I've always done my best to ignore mine ;) so I'm not much use!

I went to the Tower of London for mine this year. It was ace!!!

Do something like that

I went paragliding in Lima followed by a 10-course meal, and then an 11 hour flight across the Atlantic. Do that!

I used to celebrate Birthdays like you....then I took and arrow in the knee!

Go out for a meal with your friends, that way you can have fun without needing to get trollied!

I don't do birthdays either. In fact I often forget how old I am. Although the above suggestions do sound good.

Go see a really long film, something you would never usually go see, during the day so it will be quiet.
Then when you come out and wonder where the sun has gone despite it being only late afternoon, make your way o the restaurant where you meet a few friends for a slap up dinner, with the only booze being drunk , some nice wine to go with the grub....

Go see chronicle Annie, looks really good, then see friends for a good time.
