Maxine's 21st Birthday bash



This evening ended with a surprise we had been planning for a long time. Whilst Maxine, Tina and I went out to buy bread that became 'very urgently required' the rest of the contingent prepared the dining hall for a little surprise we had in store for Maxine.

Yesterday, Josephine clandestinely baked a big chocolate cake and this afternoon Tina decorated it with melted chocolate, smarties and candles (we still sustain that she ate more chocolate than she put on the cake - but the end result was excellent).

Purely by chance (...), today happened to be our shopping day - giving us time to buy a card and a present for her. We planned to give her a special birthday surprise and we seemed to have managed.


After the celebration we went down to the campsite for a campfire and some songs. The wood was wet and hard to light but in the end we managed. Suppost min jistona ma jkantax - imma kulhadd kanta xi naqra.

The campfire ended with the traditional Kumbaya - a fitting ending to a very good evening.
