BEYONCE


It's been weeks that I have been looking forward to the Beyonce concert in Sydney @ Sydney Olympic Park. Cherry had organised to buy tickets for the concert and managed to score pretty good viewing seats.

I picked Cherry up from her house and managed to get to Auburn Train station in time to pick Oishii up. With everyone on board we arrived at the Venue within 10 miniutes. Finding parking on the top levels we quickly rushed inside not for the concert but to hit the bar.

Grabbing white wine each we managed to find a balcony to drink up on while watching the lunatics who won the 2day fm competition rock up in Limo's. Poor things didn't get driven to the gate but had to walk most of the way.

Cherry revealed she can't drink anymore after her birthday bash. So she tossed her drink into Oishii's drink so we can enter the stadium.

We arrived to see the opening Act - CHRIS BROWN.


Chris being barely 18 was outstanding. I always liked his songs but didn't think I would have enjoyed him so much in a live performance. Following Chris was the georgeous BEYONCE!!!
Beyonce entered the stage and the crowd went WILDDDDDDDDD............

Random pics of Beyonce below:









At first I wasn't too keen on spending $130 on Beyonce but I have to say I am glad I had the chance to see her in concert. Hitting the stage showing off her sexy legs and wearing hoop earrings, who wouldn't want to see her? Yes I have a hoop earring obsession.

I quite enjoyed the fact that she sang most of her Destiny Child's tracks as well as her own solo ones. One of my favourite scenes was when she stormed onto the stage in a bellydancing outfit singing her track she made with Sharika.

I would definately love to see Beyonce in concert again one day.

Following the concert we decided not to race off to the car and wait around for the car park to empty out. However since we walked out of the venue the security guards wouldn't let us back in and this is when Cherry suggested we head to the car and leave.

We quickly rushed to the car after seeing the queue at the pay stations. Luckily I had prepurchased my ticket. We got into the car to drive towards to the exit ramp when the bitch in the BMW happened.

She refused to give way to me to get in front of her. This determined me to get in front more than ever. The more I moved in the more she moved forward. This is when I heard her mumble something about me scratching her car so I yelled what's your fucking problem. For some reason Oishii took this as a sign to get involved and start screaming at her. Next thing you Oishii turned around and screamed "SLUT" at the bitch. The bitches face was priceless. She was lost for words. She turned around in a shock saying "What?".

The bitch was lucky she didn't continue swearing at us or Oishii and I was ready to jump out of the car screaming our heads off at the bitch. Who does she think she is. Stupid slut trying to shove her BM in my face. I should have got out of the car and scratched her BM from one end to the other and see how she likes that.

Yes I know I need angry management but seriously who the fuck does she think she is. Luckily we had given Cherry a prep talk as to what she should do if a fight breaks out tonight. We told her no matter what to claim it was self defence. Poor Cherry in the back seat of my car was stressing that a huge fight was about to break out and she would be caught in the middle of it all.

Once the bitch drove off we realised that the fight really worked up an appetite. So we decided to head to Hey Hey Kebabs on Parramatta Rd.

This was Cherry's first visit after years and years of hearing about it. We made her get the hey hey special and enjoy a kebab on the street in front of the TAB.

It was a well needed kebab after the BM Slut!

ADDICTION TO THE BIER CAFE

This is seriously getting out of hand. The addiction to the Bier Cafe is getting worst and worst. In fact were at the point where we have probably tried everything on the menu.

In a last minute to live it up for 2007, it was another visit to the Bier Cafe on York St. We arrived half an hour early to discover our table wasn't ready yet. The waiter asked us to wait at the bar but due to the noise level we decided to head back out onto the street to kill some time. I think that's what I prefer about the O'connell St Venue. The restaurant is at the basement and the bar is located on the top floor. This separates out alot of noise.

Standing in a side alley talking to Oishii, Suddently she grabs me and we start running down York St like a lunatic. I have no idea why on earth she is dragging me down the street. All I hear is "It's him". Like what the fuck? Who woman?

Apparently she spotted the gay lunatic guy that tried hitting on me at Luciana's house party. So she thought it would be a great idea to chase him down the street. We basically ran from Martin Place to Wynyard to capture his photo:






Once we got that out of our system we headed back to the Bier Cafe to settle into our seats. Next thing you know our waitress Tine serves us. We decided to try the sausages tonight.

While the sasuages were sizzling we decided to hit the octopus as an entree. Nicly cooked and crispy mixed into a yummy salad.


Octopus Salad



1001 Sausages

Followed by dessert being peach in rasberry jam topped with fresh Strawberries. I think I enjoyed the dessert more than the main. I was too sausaged out with all the different sausages.

Peach with Icecream

On that note I asked our Waitress Tine to take our photo:




Moishii & Oishii


Feeling completely satisfied by our meals we asked for the bill. Tine brang our bill and mentioned that if we fill out a feedback form we get two free bier vouchers. So I filled out the feedback form stating "They need to turn the fuckin music down" and handed it in. The bill was complete and we were missing our free bier vouchers.

So I asked Oishii if we should ask the waitress for the free vouchers or will it be too rude. Oishii responded we might as well as we have no dignity left. The minute we grabbed the vouchers we stormed out of the bier cafe.

Moral of the story - We have no dignity left!

INDECENTLY REVEALING & BIG JOHNS

CHERRY'S BDAY AFTER MATHS

Now for all those that were at Cherry's drunkin licking bash would know that Cherry inappropriately revealed something. Thats right my friends. While we were all standing and chatting about nothing Cherry decided to yell out of nowhere: "I fucked Josh". Now I was going to let this one go as I didn't really want to know what came about from the porn party but Oishii who was sitting behind me having a conversation with Scarface heard this out burst and decided we needed answers right then and there.

Cherry hit a laughing fit and was off her face. Didn't know what the fuck she was saying and didn't even know why she decided to scream that out randomly. Josh's face was priceless but nothing beats Marco's face. No one actually knew or tried understanding why Cherry was screaming this in the middle of the bar.

Following Cherry's birthday bash, I met up with Cherry to go to Chilli's @ Parramatta. We decided to do a transaction there with CD's plus recap the drunkin bash. Cherry unable to explain her random outburst did claim that nothing happened between her and Josh. So I will leave it up to you to decide whether there is any truth in Cherry's random outburst.

Back at Chilli's I decided to go with a typical burger which turned out to be totally disgusting. I haven't been to Chilli's for years. I remember coming to Chilli's alot with my ex sister in law. The good old days haha

Feeling totally unsatisfied by the burger Cherry and I jumped into the car and drove to pancakes at the rocks. We ordered pancakes to satisfy our dessert needs to only realised we basically had two main meals and couldn't be bothered moving anywhere.


A DELAYED BIG JOHNS REVIEW



It was a wednesday night and there was only one way to live it up - by heading to Big John's @ Sans Souci. It was abit of a drive after work but hell worth it. I've heard quite abit about this place and reading the online reviews, well nothing good was said about the place. People complained about the waiting and the lack of service they received but I always like checking things out for myself. It's like a movie. People will have different opinions about it.

So we rocked up quite early and managed to grab a table to settle down. The place wasn't packed out but still pretty busy for a wednesday night. The service seem ok but maybe thats because there wasn't much people in the restaurant.

So we placed our orders. We knew that Big Johns had BIG servings but my god when the food arrived it was enough to feed half of my neighbourhood.

Spaghetti Marinara

Veal Scallopine


Now I love my veal but man did they packed veal on top of veal. There was easily 4 or 5 pieces of Veal with the Veggies. I struggled to get through half the plate let alone all of it. In fact I was so tempted to hide some of the food like Mr Bean style as I was embarrassed to leave it on the plate.

The Overall Experience

Food - The food is excellent value for what you pay. Huge servings and quite tasty. The food isn't traditional Italian food but still quite nice.

Venue - The venue is quite small and cramped with tables and chairs. Staff have limited space to move around in. There is no air conditioning and after about 15 minutes your ready to strip down to your underpants. We were lucky that the venue wasn't packed to the bone otherwise we would of ripped our clothes off. There is no Efpos or Credit card transactions, which can be a problem if you are low on cash.

The venue is well decorated with painting and posters hung on the walls which makes it a more interesting atmosphere.

Service - The service was quite good when we were there. However alot of reviews on line have stated that their service is crap. I would strongly recommend checking this place out on a weeknight then a weekend. I seriously wouldn't have the patience to deal with long queue's, lack of service and the heat on a weekend.

THE BIRTHDAY WEEKEND

AZRA'S 1ST BIRTHDAY

It's been 4 years since my cousin Seb married Lev. I can't believe how fast the years have gone. It feels like yesterday that we were all growing up together and trying to decide who's birthday party or house party it was. Now we are all grown up, some of us married with kids.

Seb gave birth to a beautiful baby girl last year on the 12th of April. Trust me I have no idea where the year has gone but our little Azra is now 1 year old. She's close to walking and looks so beautiful. It scares me how fast the years are going. Next thing you know I will be close to 50 and she will be getting married.

What better way then to celebrate her 1st birthday then a kebab feast back yard party!

MY GRANDMOTHER'S 78TH BIRTHDAY

Sunday the 15th of April was my grandmother's 78th birthday bash. I can't believe she's heading towards 80. I suppose we are all getting older and older. I grew up with my grandmother since I was born. When my mum went back to work I spent my childhood years with her. So she has always been there for me and I cant imagine a life without her.

Named after her brother who passed away at an early age I think I've always been abit of a favourite. It's funny when you come to think about all the memories. There's so much that you can pull together.

I hope my grandmother has a long life and I still have her around for a few years to come.

In conclusion HAPPY BIRTHDAY to both Azra and my Grandmother!

ZOO IN THE RAIN!

What kind of idiot gets out of bed and goes to the Zoo when its pouring down rain on the Easter long weekend? Well obviously us! Normal people would have spent the day in a warm bed, watching DVD's and beening lazy in their PJ's.

My alarm clock went off at 8:30am and I pulled my curtain to see the weather on the edge of a thunderstorm. Without thinking I got out of bed and got ready. You see I've been dying to go to the Zoo for ages. I nearly got there a few times as well. Last year the bitch slapping Italiano was supposed to come with but then pulled out due to work reasons. Then Cherry decided to come with me during the xmas break when we noticed the weather turning bad so we decided to give it a miss.

Then at the start of this year, I met up with Josh to go but we ended up at the beach instead hehe So you see I was desperate to go rain, hail or shine.

Besides I was so keen to try out my new Nikon D80 SLR Camera. I rocked up to Oishii's place where we decided to do a minor stop on the way because we desperately needed coffee. We arrived at Toby's Estate in Broadway. Now my boss has been bragging about Toby's for so long and now I understand. The coffee was delicious. It was served at the right temperature - not too hot or too cold.

We arrived at the Zoo after witnessing the weather change by suburb to be standing in a queue to buy tickets while its raining on us. We stopped to question why the fuck we were here and why the hell we kept refusing to leave. We finally purchase entry tickets to storm into the first shop we saw to purchase poncho's to wear.

Then we entered the ZOO. Picture this 2 idiots holding umbrellas, wearing poncho's and trying to hold SLR camera's to take pictures. We need help.

Here is a few of the pictures I took. Of course they will improve as I learn more of the functions of the SLR camera.










Once the Zoo fuss was over and we were totally over it, we decided to do a stop over at Broadway shopping centre to buy my mum some wool. Well I brought her half the shop. I think we totalled 30 wools.

Since we were here we decided to watch Mr Bean - On Holidays. It's been a while since I watched Mr Bean but all the elements were still in the movie. It was a good movie however I think it could have been a lot funnier.

CHERRY'S LICKING 26TH BIRTHDAY BASH

Cherry's birthday bash is always a fun filled incident but this year it was the icing on the cake. When you throw together alot of shots, a bunch of lunatics and of course a few special guests your bound to get more than you bargained for.

This years event held at Lord Roberts Hotel in East Sydney kicked off in the courtyard where presents were thrown at Cherry along with new filming weapons!!! Of course nothing can really out do last years 12 inch Vibrator but we had to maintain the tradition.

Hence Cherry was presented with the following:




It's not 12 inches but hey its good value!

It wasn't long before we moved upstairs into the restaurant. Well everyone moved and Josh and I sat there during to work out where the fuck everyone went.

In the restaurant Cherry's special guest arrived!!! See below




Yes that's right my friends due to popular demand it was the toe licking psycho Matt, who finally crashed one of Cherry's birthday bashes. Dinner didn't last long as everyone was ready to head downstairs to the bar to drink.

Back at the bar our barman started loading the shots. Little did he know this was the begining of something big...



The outcomes of the many shots below, it was one slippery nipple after another...


DUE TO DEATH THREATS THE PHOTO OF OISHII LICKING CHERRY OUT HAD TO BE TAKEN DOWN. ALL PARTIES INVOLVED MAY NEED TO BE UNDER A WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM!!!


While the licking fisaco was happening Matt was trying to seduce Anthea at the bar by actually buying her a drink. For those that know Matt, would know he is the biggest tight ass ever and wouldn't buy anyone a drink. Some how Anthea broke the chain and managed to fetch into Matt's pocket. Soon we discovered Anthea aka Anthony was Matt's declared soul mate.



Now a drunkin party wouldnt be a drunkin party unless there was inappropriate touching and gropping happening. Oishii took it upon herself to shove her hand and a $2 coin into Marco's underpants.

Marco had to fetch into his own underpants to find the $2 coin...
HOLA!!! Marco got the $2 coin out. Right straight to the bar with that....

The shots piled up and soon the licking increased and increased...


The slippery nipples and wet pussies soaked up all the cash and even Joel got abit too excited!


Now the photo below... Hmmmm Lets just say some people had too many shots otherwise there was no way in hell this photo would have been taken!

Matt had overdosed on alcohol so much that if he wasn't trying to hug Cherry he was planting a nice big smooch on Scarface which resulted in a massive slapping and kicking session. Some where along the line Oishii coped a nice big smooch from Matt too!!! Rumors have it Josh did too!

There was only one way to deal with all of this more shots, more licking & nipple play...




With all the excitment I managed to capture the best shot on my camera!



Somewhere along the line Cherry stormed into the toilet and someone yelled we need to check up on Cherry as she may be sick. Next thing you know Oishii, Scarface and me storm into the womans toilets. I pull out my camera phone just in case and take a shot. Oishii screams take another one so I do as I am told. Next thing you know the barman comes to tell me off for taking photos.

Since Cherry was ok we went back to the bar and hence the night continued...



The night came to an end when Cherry left us for Scary Canery or whatever its called. Scarface, Oishii and I left to walk to my car when Scarface got us lost. We took this opportunity to run off and leave Matt behind but the bastard caught up to us and collapsed onto the floor.



We quickly paid the parking and started running to my car when Oishii nearly ran into the boom gate. Unfortunately Matt made it into the car before the girls. Matt knows that we have no problem with leaving him stranded after the wonderland incident a few years back hahaa


The ride home was painful with Matt screaming about Anthea slash Anthony being the love of his life. Apparently she has hot lips and the glasses really did it for him. She is apparently his soul mate. We needed stress relief by screaming "Christineeeeeee". Some how we got a whole restaurant screaming and waving at us.

We stopped to drop Scarface off at Broadway when according to Matt he saw Vicki's butt crack and decided to run his finger along it!

It wasnt long before Matt collapsed into a breakdown crying, laughing and declaring his love for Anthony.

Oishii threw herself out of the car near Ashfield and decided to walk home rather than put up with Matt's shit.

By the time I got home I needed a Valum!

A NIGHT WITH ALEX DIMITRIADES

It's been seven months since our last catch up with Alex Dimitriades. I had brought tickets to his new play "The Nightwatchman" @ the Stables Theatre in Kings Cross. I've been a fan of Alex's work since I can remember. One of his first plays I ever watched was one of those wogboy productions @ Enmore theatre. I've managed to watch all his plays over the years including one with Crazy toe licking Matt, who wouldnt shut up about it for weeks.

We arrived to the Theatre to realise it was a sold out performance once again. What I really liked about this theatre was that it's quite small and the actors are less than a metre away from you. It actually feels like your apart of the performance. It's so intimate that you get caught up in the moment of things.

Once again Alex's performance was outstanding. Our heartbreak kid from Earlwood has come along way over the years. I won't go into what the play was about but it really makes you think about family and how fast the years travel from you.

The major topic was about Alex's father selling their family home and what history surrounded the house and the garden. It's quite funny as I'm attached to my house currently as I've been living there for 23 years. Where ever I go, I always look forward to coming home as I have alot of memories in that house.

During the play all we saw was the actors drinking wine and more wine. Alex kept opening bottles after bottles. The funny part was that he struggled to open two of the bottles. You gotta love the props.

By the time the intermission came both Oishii and I were craving for wine. The minute the lights came on I turned around and told Oishii we need to hit the bar. Yes I know my drinking problem is getting worse and worse but hey a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

We rushed madly to the bar and I ordered our white wines. The bar chick got confused as I think she was stoned on something. She told me she gave me the wrong wine but it was more expensive anyways. How difficult is it to give me the wine I asked for woman?

Once the play came to an end we decided to hang around and grab another photo with Alex. The last photos we took looked like we were heading to someones funeral. At least the ones below turned out good!

Synopsis of Nightwatchman


"Bill (William Zappa) is leaving his family home, shunted off because of will, need and incapacity. His adult children, Helen (Camilla Ah Kin) and Michael (Alex Dimitriades), show up to help (as best/least they can) with the transition, join Dad in drinking much wine, and to play with ideas of memory, nostalgia, loneliness and loss."
