All Smiles As Saturday Dawns,

Diana starts to do a little cleaning,

friends will be arriving later today,

so Diana is marinating, chicken, fillet pork and spare ribs,

Jay and Precil arrived first,

so we were up stairs as Jay showed me his new lap top, an Acer, and very nice it looked to,

as with most days at this time of year out here there is always a daily drop of rain, this one resulted in a faint rainbow, it looks like the pot of gold is falling near Sumkavit, so some one will be lucky! then a great surprise Peter called in, he is out here a few times a year, we, over the past 8 years or so meet up in Champions with Udon John and "the Dancer" if you go to Champions and see a guy dancing the night away you will know who I mean!

next to arrive was Big Jim and Mark,

then Richard, Beth and James called in, Precil and Beth having a cook fest!

Richard on the right was walking wounded, he touched a live wire in the loft of his house and crashed through the ceiling, 20 stitches in his leg and a few in a cut on the back of his head, as they say in Hill Street Blues "people be careful out there!"

meal almost over everyone had a good tuck in, Big Jim carved the whole chicken that Mark brought along, for Desert Riza made some more home made custard cream, then later we topped everything off with some Dunking Doughnuts Jay had brought,

Riza could not keep her dress from rising up, (much to every ones enjoyment!)

but she had taken the precaution of wearing a pair of shorts as well, she obviously knows what we are like upstairs! talk went from medical stuff to Mark telling of his time on H.M.S. Minerva and H.M.S. London great stories and all true, well a quite day today, then off to celebrate Jay's birthday in Sisterz at 8 tonight, see you there!
