I am now officially 27!! 27 is such a nondescript age. Its really neither here nor there,an age not given to much thought,celebration or reflection. 28 is closer to 30 and you are really getting old..26 and you are mature having just crossed 25, but 27 is not really a milestone.
The first hour or so was spent in pleasant conversation with parents and the Little One - all in all a good start to another year. I seldom think of massive celebrations on my bday,perhaps because my friends are rather disparate and I couldn't really imagine getting them all together in the same place.
As far as parties go in Oxford - my first year was probably spent with the Little One, the second was spent with Linacre gang cooking for RM's parents and the third - cant remember -perhaps OIS gang dinner? Today, will probably be spent on the Q bank and a quiet dinner with a couple of friends.
So, cheers to another year gone by and one step closer to old age :)

cheers indeed.
27 is the perfect age- think of it as the goldilocks age. you're not too young and immature (ahem ahem), and u're not too old and over the hill. u have the solidity of life that the mid 20s brings, and the freedom of not having too much responsibility. perfect!
and in your first year you went to the Cherwell Boathouse for lunch. And in your second year you wore that hideous Hawaiian shirt and celebrated with your Linacre friends. And last year, you were in Oswestry for a joint celebration with Joydada before I flew out. There you go!
obviously, with 27 comes pre-senile amnesia! Wait till you get there.
Hey, happy birthday mate, i hope you have a good one. All the best, will try and get hold of you later on in the evening on your cell. Hope you have a great day nonetheless.
27 is similar to 23 in a way, to old for the fun of 21 but still far from the quater life milestone, so basically diddling between here and there...sux
Thanks for the encouragement. We should definitely plan some hike when you are here next...Whenever that is going to be!
Hope you had a great B'day! I hope you are feeling much better abt everything!
