We planned to buy him a cake as there was one down the road from us which was a spongebob cake but unfortunately it was far to expensive so we (I mean me and sarah) decided it would be better to all pitch in for some wicked presents and make a cake.
Sarah and I made the cake (semi) on the Friday before the film screenings, Saturday Joe and I went shopping for all the food for the weekend (I even had a list and crossed it off as I got things – oh dear), and then Alex and I went to Glenelg to buy the remainder of Joe’s present. Si and I got half of it in the week.
We got him an AMAZING hamper of all English sweets and crisps and pot noodles (he is a child yes) coz he was feeling a bit homesick. I’ve never seen someone so excited about skips and jelly tots!!
I also cleaned the ENTIRE house on Saturday (yes I am mum here)
We had a few people over for drinks and a bit of food then headed out on the town. Was a good night despite us all being a bit dispersed and Joe not remembering much of the evening!! He doesn’t even remember me and Gary singing him happy birthday at the top of our lungs at midnight in the middle of the pub. Ha ha.
Sunday was a difficult day, we all felt very ouch. I managed to make it to meet am at the farmers market with Sarah but it was a very hard decision to make. And there may have been some uncontrollable stops on the way.
But then am gave me magic drink (Gatorade) and a man at the farmers market gave me a pear to make me feel better and I was on top of the world after that. We also tried the most amazing scallops of my life!! I love the farmers market so much!!
Came back and made a giant fry-up for six of us. Us girls then completed the cake, it was Victoria sponge and then I put white icing on with melted chocolate to make it look like the Stigs helmet (although Joe didn’t know what it was!!)
Was a good day and I think Joe really enjoyed it. Loved his presents and cake which was the main thing.
