That's a possibility, though I think I'd shift cake-decorating to the beginning, otherwise I'll run out of time and/or get too distracted by cake-decoration to make it to the pub before closing time.

Actually, the current plan is: decorate cake, drink gin, drink more gin, cry, drink more gin, fall over.

I never did get a _proper_ cake for my 50th birthday....
How much for a rich moist very chocolatey chocolate cake iced to look like a green baize poker table with cards and chips on?

Oo, that sounds like a fun design to do. If I knew what a poker table looked like, I mean. But it sounds like a plausible thing to do on a cake. Being flattish, kind of thing. As for 'how much', I couldn't charge you for making you a birthday cake!

A poker table is whatever table they happen to have where you go to play (eg at Chris's it's his kitchen table), with something thrown over it, preferably green baize.
The "proper" ones the casino uses for tournaments are just big circles of chipboard with green baize over.
In fancy places, they're slightly kidney shaped so the house dealer gets to reach eevrybody else more easily.
I'll see if I can find a webpage.
And since it wouldn't strictly be for my birthday as it'd be months late, OF COURSE I'd give you /something/ in return.
