Thomas's birthday party

On Thursday was Thomas's fourteenth birthday.
For his party, Thomas had decided to have a laser skirmish party. Invited were both band members, Wes, and Rhys.
The laser skirmish was good, we started of with just a simple kill everyone on the opposing team, which was very enjoyable, and then we moved on to capture the flag. The first game of capture the flag was good, it was a very close game, in the end we ran out of time, so nobody actually got the flag. Then we swapped bases and played another round. For this one, I suggested that my team simply charge into the other team's base and grab the flag. While strategically unsound, this made for a lot of fun, as well as the shortest game of capture the flag I've ever played. Unfortunately our team didn't quite make it, although we only just lost.
We then played a game called snipers and ferrets. This game is fairly simple; one team hides. Once they've picked a hiding spot, the snipers are unable to move from that spot. The other team then goes and tries to kill them within a five minute limit.
After the games of laser skirmish, we then went back to our house for lunch, and played pool. After this Jonathon, Mum and I went to work, and then we had a birthday dinner with a friend, and my brother Greg was over from Adelaide, so he came for that.
All in all, it was a thouroughly enjoyable day.
