Birthday Party 2004
I had a very pleasant time and lots of lovely presents, of which two stood out - a set of 4 mini Moet bottles, with 4 drinking straws, from David (I felt so spoiled and decadent!) and a book of Sergey's poetry. I can't read Russian but it was a very personal and touching gift. Other people very kindly gave me things like CDs from my wishlist, and I am still waiting for some others to come in the post!
Cray had never seen more than two guests at once in our house, so his behaviour was very good indeed, particularly as his bed was off limits (because I'd made it up for people to stay over).
So, photos!
