    My most memorable birthday was my 30th, I’d given birth to my daughter days before and I had a giant buffet of all the foods I couldn’t eat while pregnant – soft cheese, nuts, cured meats, pate and champagne!

    Mine would have to be my 24th Birthday, because that weekend I moved into an actual house with my newborn twins, partner and 3 year old, instead of the cold and decrepit flat we were living in!

    Not sure what year it was, I’d gone to see a band and while I was standing at the front waiting for them to come onstage, my dad bumped into them outside and told them it was my birthday. They wished me happy birthday during their set, I was equally mortified and chuffed to bits.

    My 60th. My two daughters arranged a surprise long weekend away at Centre Parcs, Penrith, for the whole family. It was ‘eyes closed Mum’ when we came off the motorway and I wasn’t allowed to open them again until we arrived. We had a fantastic few days there as a family with plenty of activities, walks, entertainment and quality time together, priceless.

    Probably my 18th but not for a good reason. I went to a nice pub with my boyfriend and some of his family. I’d already eaten some of my nice birthday cake. I was foolish enough to mix my drinks whilst on hayfever medication. I stayed the night at my boyfriend’s family home and was horrendously sick all over their bathroom floor and left it for my boyfriend to clean up. I had a terrible hangover the next morning. My 21st was nothing to celebrate. My marriage was on the verge of breaking down ( the same man). We were not talking to each other and all he bought me was a bottle of Tramp bath oil which he presented to me in a shop paper bag and the price left on
