My birthday came and went a couple of weeks ago. I was showered with many wonderful gifts from various people: several varieties of chocolate and lollies, one litre of Captain Morgan, a board game (Quantum, for those who wish to know) and several books. I even got vouchers for a surfing lesson for two. All very nice things and well thought out, as they all appealed to my tastes.
