Birthday goings on ('07 edition)

Yesterday was my birthday, during which I variously:

* Said "RSI be damned" and partook of some spinning:



* Received a lovely bunch of flowers through the post from mon frere:



* Went to Birmingham's Nature Centre, which is amazing. Though sadly our visit was coloured by the fact we had to report a newly-deceased sheep:
Them: "Are you sure? We get quite a lot of false alarms."
Us: "Well, it's lying on its back, with its eyes open, and is entirely rigid."

* Went to a rather hyped restaurant and had rather disappointing fare. However, when we realised that it would cost us £25 to eat pudding there, we decided to go to the supermarket and see how much pudding we could buy for £25 instead. That was fun.

* Got given this amazing handmade cake by my friends (unfortunately, we were so full - see above - that we didn't have room left to eat any yesterday):
