Dinner and a BBQ
Last night I cooked a nice Indian Butter Chicken and rice for dinner. Chell and I both loved it. It was delicious and Chell even said it tasted just like Masala. 
Then we got the kids back today so we went to The Strand and I cooked a BBQ lunch which was yum. The kids had fun playing at the waterpark whilst I was cooking lunch.
For dinner tonight I’m going to cook some burrito’s, which is always good fun. Chell and the kids love burrito’s and it’s a quick and easy meal.
That is all.
The weekend
I awoke with a phone call today at 12noon, I was sleeping in because I got home late from Kirsten’s 21’s last night. I answered the call, and my sister said “have you forgotten something?”, it was her 18th birthday today, I remembered, I was just asleep. So I said happy birthday to her, and she was all happy :-).
I installed OSX 10.5.2 (x86 version) on a spare laptop HDD I had floating around, it seemed to install fine, but failed when it came to booting. So instead I downloaded Ubuntu 8.04 and installed that. It worked beautifully, picked up everything in the laptop. I plugged my Logitech V220 into the laptop, and it “just worked”, I’m loving how far linux/bsd has come!
Then later this afternoon, Chell and I went down to the strand for a late lunch / dinner. We cooked up a BBQ, had sausages, steak, mushrooms and capsicum, it was so delicious. Afterwards, we came home, had a bit of a sleep and watched some TV. We are going to lay down again soon and have some ice cream and watch season 2 of Nip/Tuck :-).

My birthday weekend
My party was on the 15th March, which was great. I had an RDO on Sat/Sun/Mon which worked out quite well. I created some invitations for the party, and sent them to some friends from work. On the Friday, Rachelle and I went to Jupiters Casino for dinner, which was lovely. The food is always nice there. Then on the Saturday Rachelle and I went shopping on the Saturday to buy some meat and grog for the BBQ. We bought a 700ml bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label, Smirnoff Vodka and Jim Beam White Label.
The party was meant to start at 7:30pm, but a few people had to do a few things first, so we picked Josh up and then Rachelle and Josh went to pick Dale and Mara up. Sabina turned up while I was waiting for the rest of the people to turn up, then Kirsten and Amanda turned up. We started drinking and a short while later Brian and Brad turned up, so we drank awhile more, then Brad, being the chef, cooked up the BBQ for us.

Long Weekend
I had a long weekend this weekend, it was great. I got to spend time with the kids and Rachelle. On Sunday we decided to go to the Strand for a BBQ lunch, but it failed due to the stupid rain that came over, so we played with the kids at the water park and then went back home to dry ourselves off. Afterwards we went to Sabina’s and had a BBQ, drank some beers with Cameron, and Rachelle had some wine with Sabina while the kids all played, it was a great ending to a Sunday afternoon.
Matt & Jacob had their first day at the new daycare, the same one the girls go to. The boys said they enjoyed it a lot, which is great since they left their old friends at the other daycare, but they still see them at school. Rachelle and Jacob finished the seashell wind chime tonight, I got it all put together and now we just need to find some place to hang it. I am off to work again tomorrow at 8:20am which I am not looking forward to.

Australia Day
G’day people, well Australia Day is here. How is everyone celebrating it? Rachelle, the kids and I are going to go down the strand and have a Barbie, try do the whole Australian thing. We are going to take a cricket set and a frisbee, have a game, take some photo’s and have some fun.
I will update the gallery later once we get all the photo’s off the digital camera. I have to work on Monday, which is a public holiday so I should rake the cash in, should make at least $400 for the day
Well, comment on the blog and let me know what your doing for Australia Day, having a BBQ, or just a big piss-up?
