The aftermath....

Well, it's Sunday night now, and I have begun the recovery process from last night. I have to say a big thank you for everyone who attended. It was a great night with no drama's as I had feared. There's actually not a lot to report although I suppose a present list is always in order...

From my lovely James I got a minor present, as a larger gift is to be bestowed on me on my actual birthday though this small gift shall prove most useful. 'Tis a bag I received. Shall suit me perfectly for travelling to work and so fourth.

From Phil - I received a Warehouse gift voucher, though I have no idea how much money is actually on it so I guess i've gotta find out in store

From Keiran - A beautiful green boa, a tiara, a parrot penis-warmer and some chocolate penis' do tastifully devour.

From John and Neil I received a fantastic $100 Borders voucher which I know will go towards something very special to read. I saw some very interesting art and design books the other week there so I may invest in some new reading material.

From Cameron I received a soap and exfoliating scrub. Not sure if this was some sort of hint I have stinky, bad skin or not...but the soap smells nice.

From Ash I got a bottle of Galliano, some shot glasses and a mini bottle of absinthe. Scrummy.

From James' parents I got a bottle of Sauv - sure to go down a treat

From Donald I recieved a lovely bottle of bubbles, shall also go down a champangey treat

From Nik I recieved a definite highlight of the birthday. The Aeroplane Flies High boxset. For those not in the know, this is a somewhat rare 'giftset' of all the singles from the Mellon Collie and the Inifinite Sadness album by the Smashing Pumpkins. I've been after this particular item for years now, and have never been able to aquire it. Thankfully now, I do, and shall place it somewhere nice and displayable.

From Chris and David I recieved a gift voucher for a spa massage, which sounds like it could be a very nice and relaxing way to spend an hour or however long they last.

To my memory, that was all I got from the CHCH crew, which is a pretty impressive haul I have to say. I have no idea what's going to happen with Auckland though i'm sure things there will be fun. Though to anyone whose sent my mother photo's to go on a photo-wall, shaaaaaaaaame on you! You're going to embarrass me infront of everyone. Have you no conscious?! Oh well, it can't be helped I suppose. I'll just remember to kick you. Hard.
