Birthday Dinner

Keith and I went out tonight to celebrate my birthday. We went to Portminster Cafe in St. Ives. It had been recommended to me by the guys at work. It was fantastic. It is literally right on one of the beaches in St. Ives and has a really nice atmosphere. It is a bit pricey but it was well worth it because the food was so good. Next time we go I want to sit out on their patio. They have it set up so cozy with large heaters and a basket of blankets so you can wrap up and keep warm on cool nights while overlooking the beach and ocean. Not a bad deal!

After dinner we went to Dave's as he was having a gathering to celebrate his new place. I didn't really know anyone as it was all the guys on his course which is the course ahead of Keith's. Keith knows them all. I was quite surprised when we went in and everyone is hanging out in the livingroom and Keith stands me in front of them all and announces 'this is my wife Mandy' and then he introduces me to everyone. I'm sure I turned several shades of red. I felt so shy with all these strange people. I was expecting an individual intro to each of them not a whole announcement! Haha. We stayed there until about 1:30am and then drove a few of them home. I didn't drink. The others got a bit messy as Dave brought out 3 bottles of vodka for them to shoot during a drinking game. What a bad idea! Dave was on the bathroom floor when we left! That's what he gets!
