Happy release date!

It's Avon's birthday today! Well, I suppose release date would be more accurate. I bought him a present down on Del 10 at a gourmet shop: a couple of hundred foil-wrapped chocolate coins, though going by their face value there's about five thousand credits there. Nowhere near what he tried to take from the Federation banking system, but then he wouldn't fit into his leathers after a binge like that. I put them all in a bag labelled 'SWAG' and broke into his cabin and left them in the top drawer of his work-table where he keeps his best laser probes.

Then I sent him an electronic card from here. Kerril took a picture of me looking through the glass top of the rec-room coffee table, my face surrounded by the coins. I think I looked a bit dyspeptic after eating about 100 credits' worth, but never mind.

Birthday party!

From theatrical_muse: What do you want for your birthday?

Quite topical, this, seeing as it's Avon's birthday today. I suppose he'll answer with a list of things we didn't give him.

Anyway. I suppose must of all I'd like to be alive. Oh, and free too. Anything else is a bonus, but since you're asking, I'll go for a slap-up dinner with my friends accompanied by some decent plonk. Wine, mates, food, and a good party, what more could I ask for now I have my Kerril? If you mean gifts, I'd be happy with anything because I haven't had enough presents in my life for it not to be a novelty that someone would want to give me one. Mind you, I'd be careful opening Avon's.
