    Birthday supper, and trip to the Zoo.

    My friends and family took me out to a local Japanese place for my birthday.

    Here's the wife and I getting ready to go

    The family and I after I was dressed up as a Samurai and sung happy birthday to.

    And after returning home and partaking of perhaps a bit too much single malt I donned my armour and struck a pose.

    Next was a trip to the zoo on the weekend to enjoy the animals and the nice weather. Post to follow.

    The camera batteries died early on in the day but rest assured it was a great day as a family to wonder around the zoo!

    LOL I have been told by many of my students that once I set myself into a technique or posture my whole demeaner changes completely.
    I'll make sure I have a kilt on the next time I wear the armour, and of course get a good shot of the pleats.

    Those are very nice photos of an obviously nice day.

    We'd be really enamoured of your outfit if you didn't have such lovely ladies with you. Congrats on a very nice day.
