What a slacker!

Wow, so much has happened in the *gulp* 2 months since i have posted. There have been birthdays, christmas, new years, and a couple of engagements! I got one year older but not much wiser, i got on planes and trains, and i got uproariously intoxicated. All in all, it was a nice end to the year!

Party season started with my housemate's birthday. It rolled around while his love was overseas, so the rest of the house took it upon ourselves to spoil him a little. We set up a picnic in our favourite park with blankets, balloons and bunting, and lots of icey cold drinks for the hot day.

Each of us indulged in an incredible eggs benedict from the cute little cafe across the road, which has the some incredibly spunky staff by the way ;-)

For my own birthday i decided to book a lane the the local lawn bowls club. It really does seem like the ultimate summer afternoon activity, i reckon the old-timers have hit the nail on the head: a sport you can play with a cold beer in one hand.

There was also a couple of rounds of tequila sunrises. Now that is Trouble with a capital T.

My love baked me a cake

We scoffed warm brownies and cold strawberries in the same mouthfull

and of course, we played bowls.

So, 26 hey...?
