Cake and wine
Wouldn't you just know, after weeks of baking heat and sunshine the moment I mention Euan's traditional birthday barbecue the heavens open and god sends down his wrath upon the earth. It happens every year. I tried to fool his plan by having the barbecue a week after the birthday but he wasn't fooled. Still, it seemed to go ok - sent Mr M to do the barbecuing and we stayed warm and dry inside.
My extra is a bottle of wine which we were gifted 21 years ago and encouraged to keep until his 21st birthday. Our final holiday before Euan was born was to Tuscany where we stayed in a room on a vineyard estate. The wine is from their grapes. Mr M looked it up online and it could be worth a reasonable amount of money now. But we drank it anyway! Cheers!
