Aperitif

A good win, a Moroccan banquet and a day at the beach with my family. This, in a nutshell, was the weekend. I will elaborate in around half an hour.........Back to the game and a great day all round it was. We played well, other results went our way and there was a great following to cheer us on. Another big game tomorrow, regardless of what happens the belief in the squad of getting promotion, through any route, is very real.

An awesome display last night, this time from our friends, Jason and Sarah, who have taken the cook-off to a new level. Not only did we enjoy an unbelievable lamb and date tagine but the house was decorated in true Moroccan style complete with low table, cushions, hookah pipe and throws, all accompanied by music straight from the set of Turkish Delight!.
Jas (Topper Harris) must have sweated his way through most of Saturday to create the feast but it was well worth it. We have now decided though that it is time to calm down on the cooking front, to keep topping each other is tough. I was actually thinking hog roast for the next 'do', complete with medieval costume, fire eaters and silver goblets of wine!, this will have to wait as the next cook-off is suspended in favour of an easier option, a table for four please!!.
The only downside to the night, as far as Jas was concerned, was that I topped him with the old outfit, sorry about that pal I had to do it.

My parents, Avy and Mart, have been down all weekend and we have absolutely loved it. They have spoilt the children rotten,as usual, and were also at the game which was great. It all went too quickly though so roll on the summer!.
