30th birthday · given to a friend · £150+

For her 30th we did not get her a thing at all. We paid for a year of the climbing membership she had been saying she would get around to since roughly her 27th, and the four of us went with her on the first evening so she could not talk herself out of it.

That first session was the whole gift, really. The membership was just what made it awkward to back out of.

She is still going three years later and now belays people who are frightened, which is what she was.
