		<description>Doesn&#039;t sound like waste to me! Think how much the memories and the bonding with your friends from that say is worth in the long run. At least for me occasionally I like to splurge on someone other than myself. I&#039;m sure your your friends really appreciated that. Have fun on your 40th!</description>

		<description>Hi

Well I&#039;m glad to hear you had a good time, although having a big bash for your 34th birthday is a bit of an extravagance :)  What will you do for your 40th!  (Actually I&#039;ve just had my 40th and it passed very quietly, I was trying to forget it).

I&#039;m all for expenditure on experiences and friends (rather than things) as the memories do last a lifetime (I know this sounds cheesey) and hopefully you will get some benefit back when your friends invite you to their birthday parties.</description>
