Birthday week

Or should I say.. birthday month?! November is always a very busy birthday month in this family and we kicked off on Wednesday night with my ever-youthful Uncle's 57th, for which I was tasked to find a decent restaurant.. in Woking (Sorry Woking, but you have the habit of running most of the decent places out of town. I walked past several "closed down" signs before I found something decent AND still in business)! As it happens, Woking does excel in Indian cuisine, and that's what we went for in the end; a place called Thali Thali - very delicious. Anyway, quite apart from the cuisine, we were honoured by my Dad's presence, which was fab as he normally resides across the pond in Virginia. This meant that I could start my own birthday celebrations (coming up on Sat) a few days early, by opening the gifts from Dad and my Uncle. Today I am going to spend the whole day over in Stratford at the campus library, for some hard work before the partying begins tomorrow. Have a great weekend! M xx
