We were told there were only two seats left so these two regulars grabbed my cakes and made a dash for the seats leaving me on my lonesome. On the eve of my birthday as well. Ah well such is life.

- cakes were lovely though, you have missed your calling Steve, thought your birthday was in January.
I was not one of the two guilty fmukers as I was out and then I met up with steve after my meal at his poker place to collect my cakes. I can't imagine who those two people are? Could they be the one who ate my chips at the meal out and the other one who helped themselves to my steak on the same meal out?

The plot thickens!!
Uh Oh, the net closes!
Er.. Don't ask how I know, but they were very nice as well.

I feel for you, it was unfair of them to get all the (Kevin) Bake on.
But let them eat cake. You can always have some more Pi if you want it.

That joke was dire

I personally would never treat a friend like that

Its sad when people use you for your food and kindness and then leave you stranded on your birthday with no film to watch.

Steve told us his birthday was in January and that he had just brought some cakes for us to eat at the cinema (only found out today it was his birthday) who are we to turn cake down, we dont need an excuse to eat it do we. When you arrived you said you had poker to go to so we took the cinema seats, though we did see you trying to sneak in after us. Had we known it was your birthday today we could have held out to watch something else together instead. At least you got a ticket to watch something else of your choice.
The chips was an honest mistake on my part

I know I was only joking as the look of horror on your face said it all

I too thought it was in January so he will have to have his birthday bash then like the Queen with 2 birthdays!
