Well, I have stumbled across this blog again and realised that I have been a member of this site since 2006 and I have not used it once yet. How very bad!
So, what I am going to write here, I have no idea but I am going to try and write as often as possible.
Well, the weekend is over again, and it was very busy as usual but we had a good one. On Friday night, I met Mike after work at the Vic and then all his work mates were rounded up and we went off to Freud's Cocktail Bar in Convent Garden. We had a lovely time, the bar is underground and all concrete, small and extremely busy. There was barely any standing space but besides that, I haven't one other complaint. The cocktail menu was almost limitless and the ones I had were very tasty! They also exhibit art there and change the art once a month, which I thought was quite cool. We left the bar pretty early and headed home for a nice curry and an early night.
On Saturday, we had a bright and early morning as we made the trip up to Paul and Dimples for Kirans 1st Birthday! The weather was lovely and warm and we had a lovely afternoon with them. Plenty of delicious food, including the most amazing potato samoosas! Yummy! There were also plenty of little kids around that had successfully made me feel a bit broody by the end of the afternoon! They were just too cute!
Then Mike and I made a spontaneous plan to have a braai at our house as Mark is now in London and we wanted to all get together. So, back off to London we rushed - well we tried to at least, we caught the long train and ended up taking over 2 hours to get home! - and had a braai at our house. Mark, Bleesh, Morne, Mike and I were all there and we had a veg packed braai and some amazing steak! Dwayne joined us later and we ended up getting to bed way after 3am after the boys dipped into the 12 year old Jameson!
After a good sleep in after a late night the night before - we got up on Sunday and made plans for our outside area - as we had broken our last chair and the braai the night before! So Mike and Dwayne went off to Argos and got us a lovely black and silver patio set, with a glass table, 4 chairs, umbrella and 2 loungers. We also got a bigger braai - a nice half barrel - like good South Africans!
We have put the patio set up but we still need to do the braai - Mike was feeling a bit weak after all the carrying that he had done on a hangover!
By this time, it was evening already and I made us a nice Chicken and Butternut soup - which Mike loves and is the only soup that he will ever eat! Then Mike was on the GTA4 (he bought the game yesterday as well) and I spent the rest of the night watching some CSI Sunday!
And so the start of another week!
