Party in 1 week.....
Aussie
It's going to be even bigger than my 50th!!
But then, mine was held on a houseboat in the middle of Moreton Bay, and
the party lasted 17 days :-)
One more shopping trip coming up, and I'll do a last minute check to make
sure I have all ingredients for multiple desserts, the starters (Holy
Crap!! I just remembered I'm out of Wonton wrappers!!), and the BBQ mains.
Tomorrow is work day, have to get a load of paperwork etc out of the way
to free up the rest of the week till Thursday when I'm back on 24/7 call
(till Sunday night!!)...... and Monday is planning day to plot on what
day, when, and at what time, different dishes have to be
started/finished/prepared.. Tuesday is shopping day (still have to get her
a present!!), and Wednesday on is prep and pre cook...... barring any work
related callouts.
Airport pickups are arranged, accomodation for o/s and interstate guests
are locked in, lighting has arrived, the cover for the back deck will be
raised on Saturday afternoon and lighting fitted, after which the function
hall will be prepped for the main body of the party.
I'm starting to champ at the bit, the juices are flowing, and the blood is
bubbling........ I know it's going to be a long week, but I'm itching to
get started. This is the 'buzz time'... the excitement of knowing you're
going into a shit-storm, and as soon as it starts, it's game on, head
down,arse up and go go go :-)

If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming..If
you want to experience the element, get out of the vehicle !

...and before you know it, your colon is so full of semen that you need MORE
ass surgery!
I will note the use of the spelling "arse" in this post as compared to the
term "shiny-assed" in the thread about the kid at the White House. Makes me
wonder whether that White House thread was started by the manlymail guy --
or whether Swallows *is* the manlymail guy.

I've been trying to tell you folks that for a few months now.

Yes, I'll be 'might pleased' when I see them all hoeing into and
demolishing with abandon the food I've lovingly spent *ages* preparing and
producing,....... I will...... honestly I will!! :-)

Some of us are starting to join the dots, so to speak.
Note the typical timing of all the Peter posts. There is a pattern there and
it suggests they are coming from one and the same person, namely Peter Lucas
himself. What may make no sense to us, may make perfect sense to Peter,
particularly if his objective is to try to to garner sympathy and / or
attention.

That last part seems peculiar. Does anyone else get on their knees and
elbows to cook? Or were you not talking about cooking?

On the seventh day God rested.
But on the 8th day the Gates of Hell were opened
and God brought forth the Airborne Infantry.
And the Devil stood at attention.

I appreciate your enthusiasm but referring to party prep as a
"shit-storm" doesn't present an attractive mental picture.

putting yourself into that are extremely hazardous to your health and the
fact that they can go 'pear shaped' in an instant ;-)
