and her brother is stealing cake boxes from Sainsburys bakery (he works there) for her to put them in. I guess that's his birthday present to me - knock off patisserie packaging!

Hurrah for cakes!!!

Are these more of the cakes Pickle was seen munching on on Facebook? How many of these have you made, woman!

No, these are new cakes that Pickle will not be eating. As I am a poor shroom at the moment I will not be buying treats for work tomorrow, it is cheaper to make my own.

Anyway how is that fair - on YOUR birthday YOU are obliged to treat the office!

*pats the poor shroom*
Tell them to bring party hats
(but your birthdya isn't til... oh, damn, it's the 15th today, not the 14th!)

Don't worry - I have no idea what day it's been so far this week. I was thinking of making myself a nice party hat because it doesn't feel like my birthday.

You should.

And here's a balךoon from me.

Why.. thank you...

*furtively takes balloon and keeps it at arms length as Bethy is petrified of balloons!!!*

Ah, my evil plan is indeed on its way then.

*smug*

I got to work this morning and Sinead had taped a balloon to my monitor!!! In fairness she knew not of my fear and she had put birthday banners up. She is a buzzoo.

My girls they did spoil me -with lots of precious things including 2 cupcake recipe books! Do you suppose that's subtle hinting on their part?

They want more cupcakes and not jsut on your birthday?

Sounds reasonable to me! *wants a cupcake*

I put on my CV that I enjoy cupcakes - both baking and consuming.

Oh, you really should - that's a big plus on your cv.

Oh, adn Bethy? There've been rumours of poisonous cupcake materials on the market in Cardiff. I think you should send some cupcakes here for them to be... analysed.... so that we'd know they're alright!

If I knew they'd get through customs I would!

I think we could try the "medical emergency" strategy...
Although I'm more afraid of the evil postofice people than costums.
