I got a lot of photos from the day.

Actually got a FPV B'day cake made up from the place that did my wedding cake.

Thanks again everyone ... the weekend went very well indeed ... got damn cold during the night but had the fire going and also got one of those gas pedestal heaters too ... so I was pretty stoked.

Here's a picture of the cake (organised by Bec ... pretty much identical to the B'day invitations she made.
