I've quite enjoyed this year's birthday and was able to take time to
celebrate. The morning started with a swim to burn off the previous day's
Chinese, followed by a normal breakfast. Then I had a few hours to myself to
get some campaigns organised in response to other people's requests. A short
walk followed in a quest to the Beefeater; and although there was no real ale
available (and some beardy weirdie was actually present to point it out to
me!), I quite enjoyed my Swedish pear flavoured cider and ginger pork washed
down by sticky toffee pudding. A short walk back towards town allowed me to
jump on a train to Brum and catch up on some reading along the way. Once I'd
arrived and explored the new station, I decided to venture into TK Max for a
pair of jeans, and after close scrutiny; I actually found two! My next
task was shoes; and after searching the big department stores I had found some
I liked in the big discount stores; but; after battling with teenage shop
workers and foreign families to get some service; they just weren't in my size.
So my final task was to kill some time before a meeting by visiting some pubs
to get some Cask Marque scans; I'm happy to report that I'm now over the 50
mark and hopefully a polo shirt will be finding its way to me soon.
