Sensei’s birthday bash

What do you get if you go to training on your birthday?

Well, if you’re the teacher and it’s your 40th and you make the mistake of letting your sensei run the class, it turns out you get 40 star jumps, 40 sit ups, 40 press ups, 40 different types of attack, 40 kata moves, …

And 4-on-1 randori.

So. Much. Fun.

Also I was quite tired.

Afterwards, we went out for lunch. We went to Eat Your Greens, which was a superb choice. Their vegan Beastie Breakfast was vast and tasty, and chocolate and beetroot cake is the best invention ever.

And the company wasn’t bad either. <grin>
