Good friends and great food

Just returned from a pleasant evening out with some work buddies. I think this will become a regular unofficial thing now. And I am the unofficial event organiser of these outings. Food is an awesome bringer-togetherer of people :)

So tonight we went out to Blue Chillies in Fitzroy. Small, quaint restaurant with tasty food and fairly good service, albeit pricey for the type of stuff I normally get at home...

But, money just cannot buy the company I was with tonight. A crazy eclectic mix of personalities. A priceless gift :)

So... What about the food? Any pics I hear you ask? Well, no actually. I didn't take any pics because food bloggers there are plenty and there are plenty who are darn good at it, whereas I am not a food blogger. I am but an enjoyer of good food. And when I am with great company, the food experience triples in enjoyment value. You can take it from me though, it was pretty darn good ;)

But now I must restrain myself from any more eating out... Just starting to feel my clothes becoming tighter than usual, not to mention my pocket becoming lighter!

Well, restraint shown until at least the next pay day heheh :)

However, I guess I will be starting boot camp next week so getting pleasantly plump isn't the real problem ;P

The torture begins next week!

Keep your head high Bella Mae - Dallas Crane



You and me are never gonna be right
So don't wait up late for me tonight
This is one of those
We can't push outta the way

We can fight our demons till we're blue in the hands
But darling I won't be doing that
Cause it's time now love
To move right on in the grave

So keep your head high Bella Mae
Save your crying for another day

We had the world in our heavy hands
We'll never have that time again
So move along tonight
But don't sit around by the phone

You and me were always running behind
Now I know we're outta time
And it's the only way
And deep down darling you know

So keep your head high Bella Mae
Save your crying for another day
So keep your head high Bella Mae
Save your crying for another day

You and me we had our one last stand
And time ran out on our master plan
But now it's gone tonight
We ain't got nothing to say

You and me are never gonna be right
So don't wait up late for me tonight
This is one of those
We can't push outta the way

So keep your head high Bella Mae
Save your crying for another day
So keep your head high Bella Mae
Save your crying for another day

Crikey Christchurch!

Sad news about Christchurch this weekend. Everything is broken and we had everything planned... Selfishly, I sure do hope that it's all gonna be fine and dandy by the time we land cos I'm really looking forward to driving around the South island a bit... We're gonna have to keep a close eye on things cos perhaps we might need to change plans and head straight to Greymouth or Hokitika (sp? Hokitiki?? Y'all know what I mean).
