Barbie Time Is Here!!!

Well it certainly seems that bar-b-q time has arrived in sunny Queensland, even though it is deemed to be "storm season". The weather does what it does best here --- one day beautiful and the next day WIND AND RAIN!!! You all thought I was going to say PERFECT, weren't you???
It was great to have friends around for the afternoon on Sunday. I flashed the barbie up and the kids took over. So I just sat back chatting with my mate Brian and sinking a couple of cold XXXX Goldies.
Zarina and Brian



Zarina had a bit of a scare on yesterday and was rushed to hospital, but fortunately, she is now well on the way to recovery. We are all thinking of you love.

Mariam and Adzlan
Mariam and Adzlan did most of the cooking on the barbie and we feasted on fried chicken, bar-b-q chicken and barbied 2 inch thick tuna steaks. A feast fit for a king.

Mimi and Aina
 These two girls did a lot of the preparation inside after they arrived at home. The care they took in making the fruit and vegetables look so inviting was phenomenal. Well done girls. You are welcome in the kitchen any time.
My hard working wife Kay
Kay worked from about 8 am preparing the inside-cooked meals and preparing the meats for the barbie as well (except the tuna, which was Adzlan and my job). You can always count on a feast when Kay decides to entertain and I don' utter one word of complaint. Its almost like being back in Malaysia. Everything is so authentic.
I also did my bit during the morning by cutting up the chickens but I mainly spent my time outside tidying up so the place looked presentable.
So, just to finish, I would like to recommend to you that if you get an invite from Kay, please don't turn it down because you will regret it when you hear what was laid on!!!!
Those who didn't come or couldn't, EAT YOUR HEARTS OUT!!!!!
