Meow!

I finally got round to posting the pictures on my 1st paintball experience which was in Bristol. If my vague memory serves me correct, it was at Delta Force which was located a rather desolated and remote place from which you can tell with the pictures. The only thing I remembered clearly was the adrenaline rush which I got from shooting *cough* and getting shot *cough* with the other faction. Overall it was a highly enjoyable outing though we did come back with some bruises courtesy of the paintball bullets.

This is how the quintessential English fish and chips are made with zero knowledge.

Here's a rather amusing satire based on Malaysia's upcoming general election.

Adding few more photos to the existing collection from other sources (thanks to Shanna and Billy)...

As white and pure as angels. xD

On the 14th of February, we decided to go out and celebrate Tzon Cher's birthday at a japanese restaurant. Unfortunately it was not to be due to a breakdown in communication when the reservations were placed which left us with the option of either forking out a minimum of £20 per head or going somewhere else which we then choose the latter.

After wandering through the city centre in search of a restaurant that would accommodate our bunch, we finally decided to go with Mayflower. It's another chinese restaurant in Bristol which is rather secluded and nondescript.

Before long the dinner started and everyone was contented with their dinner. After the dinner, Jomay presented her specially home baked cake for Tzon Cher. After that we gave the birthday boy the customary aluba and we parted ways for the night.























The food:

The next night (7th of Feb), we decided to head out to the HK Diner for another dinner albeit with a smaller group of people. This was the second time I was there, the first being a horrible experience as the food was crap and the service was poor.

Being wiser from our previous run in with HK Diner, we decided to play it safe by ordering a rice based dish with came with a few side dishes. Thankfully this time around, the food turned out to be pretty good (well I wasn't expecting much in the first place...). The best part was we had a free dessert on the house thanks to the festive mood of the restaurant which made everyone rather generous that day.

As they say, the best things in life are free and the dessert was rather memorable as it was the best food in there by a mile. I could be pedantic by saying the gula melaka didn't quite taste like the ones found in Malaysia but then again, it's free! Too bad I couldn't remember what the name was although I did have a picture of it.





'Char siew' with duck.

I'm hard pressed for time to blog right now so in the meantime, do take the liberty to browse through the pictures on facebook.

On the 6th of February, we organised a small chinese new year dinner amongst ourselves at Dynasty. A total of 40-ish people were expected to arrive on that night. We reached Dynasty at 7pm to set up the place in time for the dinner at 7.30pm which meant having a go at the antique karaoke machine while it was still empty!

The guests started streaming in at 7.30pm and the dinner was at full swing by 8pm. Tory Tan opened the dinner with a slew of CNY congs solo. Dinner was then served and after that the gathering started to liven up even more because it was now time for the fun and games! Hidden in a few angpow packets were 'lucky' cards which meant the receiver had to sing a song which was either a blessing or a curse depending on how you look at it. =)

Once that was through and done with, everyone jostling for the mike to sing/scream/holler/croak (take your pick) along to the music. Overall the gathering was a memorable event as it was the first CNY dinner away from my family.
