Pops turns cinquante-trois

Today was pretty eventful as it was Dad's buffduh so Ma, Hel, O, Pa and I went to the Malvern Hills hotel for lunch where the drinking began. I enjoyed a lovely halloumi and roast pepper baguette (white bread, obvs) We then came back home so Lib didn't destroy the house and played some epic hollywood buzz, Owla clearly reigned supreme with a score of about 10 million, as a reward for coming first we secured as far as I could tell, some sort of torture cave, thanks Buzz.

Then Clare came home from school so we went on a big family walk on British camp, saw the cutest westy puppy ever and then went back to the Malvern hills hotel for more post walk drinks. Then went back home and had more celebratory birthday drinks and snacks, opened birthday gifts, had more drinks, enjoyed Mums 5 star cuisine (no, seriously, that's not sarcastic, Mums cooking is 2nd to none, it looked well masterchef, go Mumbo!) Then ate a lovely home baked birthday cake, had more drinks. By this point the lightweights of family (me and Mother) were fairly drunk and Mum was being a drunken fool and dancing with dog. Owen was then treated to a repeat of Clares epic Canada speech as she still has it written down. Owen went back to Bristol, Clare went to bed and Pops, Mum, Hel and I watched Life and oohed and aahed over the Attenborough/hd/nature goodness and then we watched Ross Noble Australian something and Mum etc.. moaned that Billy Connolly had just done the same thing but on a Harley Davidson and then everyone forgot about moaning and laughed because Ross Noble is sometimes quite funny. Or in Mums case she fell asleep because she always does after about 1 sip of wine.

Overall, a good day involving no arguing and everyone being nice and happy, horray for my lovely family :)

Also, everyone minus Dad and the dog went to see Up yesterday. It was super super great, I loved it. I even liked having the kids in the cinema too because they were mental and laughed at the weirdest things. I quite liked that because I guess when I was younger I would have found that funny too. I also liked that they all cried really loud and didn't care that they were blubbing in public so no-one could probably tell that I was also being a massive wettie and sobbing too. Hopefully it will make people be nicer to old people as well because Carl is amazing :) yay for Pixar, plus I don't think that they are that evil as I saw a quite nice programme about them and they don't seem too bad :)

Then Helen and I watched the OC and Seth and Summer got back together and everything was right in the world
