We went to St Davids in Pembrokeshire for my 21st. You could throw a party or pub crawl or bowling. Depends on you and friends/family.

I didn't do anything, I don't care much for birthdays.

Ooh, that sounds fun! :smile:

It's not actually till January, lol, but I'm kind of panicking because I'm moving to Birmingham (for work) in a couple of months, and as I'll be celebrating there (my birthday is right after the holidays end!) I'm not sure how many new friends I'll have made in just a few months. My friends live all over the place ATM, though my besties and family will be coming up ofc :smile:

That's so cool! Have fun, and Happy Birthday in advance :biggrin:

I really want to go to America (there's a Contiki trip going at the same time as my birthday) but none of my friends can afford it :frown: Not sure if I should just have dinner or something with home friends/family and then go on the trip solo or what (you can meet other people on the trip and people often go solo).

Omg that sounds amazing :gah:

Are you from somewhere outside the UK? (Guessing based on the beach party) :tongue:

Clubbing till sunrise is most definitely on the cards! :thumbsup:

Thank you ya thirsty bastard! :tongue:

Oh that sucks :frown: I would suggest something in Europe tbh as it's pretty easy for others to get to for a weekend/ afford. My closest friend are planning like South of France/Berlin. If you have like 4+ People you can rent an appartment for cheap ^.^

Hahaha, that's the only reason I chose this username :five: The word "thirsty" has gone a lot around TSR lately! :tongue:

It's just generally a bad time to have a birthday TBH (middle of January), so I don't think my friends will be able to come travelling with me at all as some of them work weekends etc. and we'll be lucky if we can all have a full day off :frown: Will definitely go clubbing/have a meal at least, though.

I did kind of want to go round America (the trip stops off in Las Vegas which would be fun after just turning 21)! but I suppose maybe we can do that some other time. Not sure if I'd want to do that solo and then do something small with home friends or not?

I'm from Venice Beach, California! :shades:
And honestly I'd say make it an all day thing, like a hen/bachelorette party meets prom night. That's how I do it.

Cool place to be from! Do you even have cold winters? :tongue:

Yeah, I might do that. It's on a Sunday so hopefully no-one will be busy.

A Sunday? :curious: Homegirl, no, don't do that!?


Lol no honey not a Sunday. A Friday night hangover to Saturday or Sat night hangover to Sunday. I mean it's Summer but Sunday is never a fun day lol But that's just my advice :biggrin:

Yeah, maybe Saturday :tongue: Or the Friday night would work, I want it to be in the same week. Don't fancy going to church with a birthday-girl hangover :lol:

God knows to be honest, it'll probably be a day trip or something to somewhere :tongue:

Lol
and the weather depends on location, but winters are 30F and summers over 100 typically.
I got taken on a suprise weekend break to prague for my 21st went segwaying, went to bar where a woman had her baps out for absolutely no reason and witnessed a lesbian lap dance in the middle of a bar while I was eating my dinner got absolutely smashed with some americans, a japanese person & dutch person was pretty random but will remember it for the rest of my life
