In a weeks time, I will be 24. I’ll be honest, whilst I know what I’m getting and a rough idea of what I’m doing for the Saturday after (my Birthday is on a Tuesday, the most exciting thing will be Colwyn Bay vs. Alsager away), I guess there’s no more surprises. It’ll be fun, but it won’t top my best birthday ever - my 21st.
As good as my 18th (drunk in the Marine in Colwyn Bay) and my 23rd (myself, Han, Guy and Celeste making mischief on the streets of London), it wasn’t like my 21st. My 21st was perfect, I had a gorgeous girlfriend in S, my brother and friends all came out (with one hugely understandable exception which we won’t go into here), and I met my mum & other brother for a day out in Liverpool earlier on in the day for food and frolics. The night before S and myself went to La Tasca - a mediterranean restaturant - and is the only time I’ve ever eaten Spanish food. Bloody shame as I love it.
In the evening, myself, S, my brother and a sizeable number of my University friends went out for drinks, we ended up in the Krazyhouse, my favourite nightclub. I danced, drank a whole bottle of cheap and nasty champagne, and kicked all comers arses on the Tekken 3 machine they had there. In the end, me, S and my brother left and went home happy and merry.
Anyway, why am I telling you this? Well that birthday shaped what you’re reading, as my brother - who always manages to get ace presents - bought me a fantastic little present that was cheap for him, but I loved it.
He bought me gospelrhys.co.uk.
I went from a hosted blogger account to a hosting package, and the rest - as they say - is history.
What has been your best birthday ever?

I can’t remember which birthday it was but when i was much younger i was lucky enough to get a guitar shaped keyboard (think 80’s)
that rocked. i still remember it and loved it!
can’t believe your wales rugby shirt isn’t top of the list thou
Once again im going to be sending apologies for not joining the festivities… it’s not personal i promise! And as for last year.. haha i had forgotten about the fun of Thorpe Park and London! them were the days
Funny you should mention that as in the last two days I’ve worn the t-shirt S bought me and the rugby shirt you and the lads bought me
And your best present was easily the super monkey balls!
You know me and my ace present theme, I wouldn’t hold your breath for this birthday…
Don’t worry, I’m not. I’m assuming you haven’t bought it me yet, and will buy it after my birthday when I next see you
Domains are great gifts - I bought my mom Couturesmith.com for Christmas
Anyway, my favorite birthday gift of all time of the one that sits on my left-hand ring finger…a nice shiny sparkly ROCK!
Best one ever? Wow, nothing really comes to mind as being best. Nothing spectatular, nothing lacking. All just good. Maybe my 30th in a few months will rock!
I didn’t realise you’re that old! Jeez.
