My 21st Birthday was on December 28th 2003 and I strictly instructed my flat mates that they were to ignore it -- no party, no presents. As it turns out, they totally ignored me and so I have had to suffer a couple of fantastic surprises in the last week or so: firstly, on the night of the Clare College May Ball I was presented with a pocket watch, something I have been hankering after for quite a while; secondly, and possibly more impressively (though I'm probably not allowed to say that...) was the collection of cuddly-toy Wuzzles from the 1980s kids cartoon!

I suspect it doesn't mean much if you aren't a child of the 80s, but I think they're fantastic...
