Happy birthday D!

Many happy returns D.

Tonight we got together and had a few drinks amongst friends to celebrate. The evening ended with a marathon poker match which I was happy just to watch. I'm not a big fan of poker as a game, I find it unsociable and I don't really enjoy playing it. I guess I don't like losing money or maybe I just lose money because I don't like playing the game. With everyone else taking part I sat and watched N's hand and each round I listened as reasoning was given for each play he made. I enjoyed this more than I think I ever would playing.

I popped in to see Mum and Dad earlier. We enjoyed a cup of tea together and chatted away. Mum produced a newspaper article which had tickled her during the week, I laughed heartily and almost instantly thought of it as material. Unfortunately it will have to wait for tomorrow's post as I left it behind. It was nice to spend some more quality time with my parents, especially after last weekend. As I was heading off I gave Mum the ritual hug and kiss, the embrace lasted that little bit longer, conveying everything I needed to know.
