Nice party?

by Wael
(Cairo, Egypt)

I am a mother of three children , we live in a very calm place in Cairo , I have a very funny story about the party that we did to celebrate the first year birthday of our youngest baby.

We invited all our relatives in Cairo , we actually invited about 20 guests, my other two children also invited their nursery friends, this made the total guests about 30 people.

In order to be prepared for this huge number of guests we made a delivery order for six pizza king size and one big chocolate cake from a very good bakery shop in Cairo, the party time was at 19:00 o'clock, the visitors started to come at about 18:00 o'clock.

When it reached 18:30 o'clock we started to feel worried that the delivery man did not come yet. I asked my husband to call the bakery shop. He tried his best to call them but unfortunately their phone number was out of service all the time. It was about 19:00 o'clock when my husband finally succeeded to reach someone to answer his call. The man on the other side said that the delivery man could not know the address and that he was trying to call us but the phone number was out of reach all the time.

It was very silly situation as we only celebrated the birthday without having anything to eat. We only offered the visitors with CocaCola. So not really a fun party, but definitely one that is remembered.
