At the Forum General Meeting held at the PlayCentre on Monday 14th July 2008, the Chairman Mike Burrows was very pleased to share his birthday cake, baked specially for him by Jean Rotheram, with the people attending the meeting.

However, pleasure turned to embarrassment when a rousing edition of Happy Birthday was sung by those present and Nick Walton insisted on recording the events with his camera.

From left to right are Kathryn Muscroft (LHT), Mike Sheppard (Lib Dem councillor for Windmill Hill ward), Mike Burrows (Chairman of Windmill Hill Community Forum and the Birthday Boy himself), David Brandwood (trustee and volunteer), Maureen Hazlewood (representing St Berts Church), and Colin Hughes (Positive Futures).

Many thanks go to Jean for her wonderful lemon sponge cake which was beautifully decorated, but thankfully only held two candles rather than the number corresponding to the chairman's age.

Mike would only admit to being 39 again, but later in a moment of weakness, confessed to being 23 for the third time.  Work it out from that...
