Josh's Birthday - A Summary, in pictures.

On Friday the 4th December, Josh Nolan became 18, and thus, a man. Here's what we did to celebrate:


First of all, there were some spectacular contributions to the 'lying down game'. We started off gently, me taking a position on a cabinet in The White House. It almost toppled, but I stayed strong. As can be seen below, there were a few impressed onlookers.




Next, we took the obvious step of Josh joining me for the cabinet position.




Spurred on by the stirring images of French revolutionaries behind him, Josh clambered to the highest cabinet.



We were all pretty shagged out after this, but we had a glorious effort outside the White House, with James and Sanchez (minorities) supporting Joe (white male).







But then, Josh wanted more. We looked around for a bit, until we spied an ultimate challenge:





It wasn't easy. It was mossy, it was wet - but he did it. When asked how he did it, his answer was simple, humble and moving.

'I flew up there in my roflcopter'.



In all the commotion, i'd forgotten to eat any Pick 'n' Mix for about ten minutes, so my blood sugars were getting low. We decided to grab some lunch, and bring the gang along for Birthday festivities (drunkenness).




Some say it's irresponsible to drink at lunch time when you have college.


DRINK WAS NICE.


After a few 'lager beers' and 'pear cider drinks', we went to the toilet to empty our respective bladders and review our respective offal. I won't say what happened immediately after this picture, but I'm sure you can guess from my wry loook and hand placed all too much 'zipper ready'.




When we got back, we decided to pose for a bit.













Unfortunately, the bell in our conforming minds rang, and it was time to head back to college. Luckily, our college is literally eight seconds away from our beautiful pub/bar/cafe/resteraunt Monty's.

After college, we had a few hours to get our acts together, scrub up and begin the nights triumphs. Josh was to have an elegant soirée, and formal wear was a must. When I got to the party, with fellow chum Sam, we found the place rife with alcoholic consumption and hop hip disco dancing. It didn't take long before we were amongst the fray.






There were a few emotional speeches at the end. Josh was wearing a hat and a roflcopter tee, which was pretty sweet.



But, dear readers, the sole reason I wrote this was not just to share Josh's birthday with the 'internet'. That was important, but another motive drove me on. It was to share the picture below. To hope that somewhere, someone would see it and that they would understand more about life...







WHOAH.





ps. Sat next to a fit bird at lunch. Nice.
