Birthday Celebrations...

Just before Ashlynn left for Pukkelpop, she and Jimmy helped me celebrate my 54th birthday by going to the Cool Japan exhibit in Leiden.

That weekend Veronica flew home to celebrate her 20th birthday with us. We had already committed to going to a FILTH Hash in Hillegom ending at Celine and Richard’s new house, so we dragged her along on her birthday.

To make matters worse, we bought her new shoes just before heading to the run.

In normal hash tradition that means she would have had to drink out of her new shoes, but she opted to join Jimmy in drinking out of his new shoes instead.

Of course, her parents had to drink with her for being so mean as to bring her hashing on her birthday in the first place. At least we helped make it memorable.
