Bless the Queen!

Haha..today's the Queen's Birthday so it is a public holiday for everyone here (not tt it makes a difference to us hah). Anyway, I half dragged myself to St Kilda at 11.30am to meet Claudio for a run. He's on a new healthy regime to get himself back into shape.

"i have never been so fat in my life!"

Anyway, that is something i need to do as well, am feeling totally unfit and lumpy. And so we ran from one end of St Kilda beach to the other and walked our way back hee (though the plan was to run back). Okay it was my fault, I was too tired to run back haha so Claudio was nice enuff to stop his run and walk back with me. It's beautiful running (& walkng) along the beach...the sea, the gulls, the sailing boats, the vast sky... :) We realised it was like 1.50pm by the time we were back at St. Kilda (which explains our hunger) so we popped down to the street for lunch. It was bustling at the street, lotsa families were out enjoying the hol and it was nice just basking and soaking in the atmosphere. Had a really gd lunch at this Italian place which i can't quite remember the name, smoked ham, anchovies, mushrooms, olives & mozarrella pizza for me and tomato soup for Claudio (the waiter wanted to put the soup in front of me n pizza for him hah..told u he is on a healthy regime).

Plan for tonight was dinner at Meelin's place! :) Because Claudio was busy lazying and only had time to do nothing, dessert had to be bought (he was supposed to make something for dessert).

So it's off to good ol' reliable Krispy Kreme!

Okay maybe the dude in the picture above may not look very familiar...

Clearer now eh? Dear Claudio has decided to bare it all! Haha...his new look to go with his new regime :)

He's got a whole new attitude to go with it as well...vainer, bitchier and punkier. Hee.

And finally we arrived at Meelin's place @ Clayton after a long ride on and waiting for the train. She's got sucha NICE place!! Big plasma screen + surround system + PSIII + nice big kitchen and the list goes on..

Claudio and Oliver having a go with PSIII.

Steak for dinner!!!!! Juicy and full of E.coli as Claudio said (he's such a nerd)..and of cuz our lovely Chef:)

Gavin, myself, Oliver and Claudio

We were entertaining ourselves and being totally not helpful as dinner was cooking..and of cuz drinking wine hee

Dinner was served! Bon Appetit :) There's Pam with Bani and Claudio, the very happy diners.

Dinner was Fabulous. Thank you Meelin!! And though we were stuffed from dinner, we could always make space for desserts :)

And we decided to play Charades! Haha...we were playing with movie titles...Finding Nemo, Cinderalla Man, The Godfather, Rush Hour, Minority Report, Slap Her, She's French, Air Force One etc etc...hilarious and loads of good fun! :D But conclusion, Meelin and Oliver cannot be in the same team next time! Hee. They are formidable together.


And so the night ended with us running to catch the train so that Bani and Claudio is able to take the last tram back home from city. As cold and wet as the night was, we certainly were in high spirits :D

[Because some new names were mentioned, here's who they are :) Oliver: Meelin's bf and occupant of house as well, Gavin: friend of Meelin, Oliver and Pam and is also from Mauritius, Pam: third occupant of house]
