fast food with the fellas.

Meeting Mr Stan and Mr Michael for the first time.Michael and Robert have been friends for along time so it was bound to be a crazy loud any thing goes night...according to Robert,Michael was abit of a party boy and up for anything.
Dinner was booked at Kowloon.I haven't had a  Chinese meal since I was 10 years old and beef in black bean ,chicken chow mien and sweet and sour pork where the order of the day.(and a free MSG nightmare for every kid under 12.)




Lucky the company was great.
As to be expected,the liquor flowed as thick as the sauces and we were, in no time the loudest table in the room.
4 gorgeous gay men ,a husband and me.

and i laughed like i haven't in a long time.
John had his record gig at the Kings around the corner so he left me with the lads, and a loose plan to meet up there after dinner.
Which we had to do a runner from...thats a whole other story...
Four handsome men
the last photo of the evening.
 
The camera was put away after this.We needed no evidence of us cutting the rug up at the Kings Bar to Boz scaggs "lowdown".Nor, of us at the Mars bar. Adelaide's answer to a gay bar.
This place has been around for a long time.
What a great club and we happened to go on the night there was a drag show.Ten fabulous men in drag swanning about the place.
Katy Perry blasting out of the speakers.
And we scopped.We had to be cool and pretend we new the deal and we moved from spot to spot
around the club.It was fun.Robert worked the room being the handsome fellow he is and as the music took over Errin, and he danced his little pants off beside us.
One champers more than one champers, and I was ready to dance to Katy Perry also..leaving John to chat with all his lovely new friends.......when John gave me the nod of "its time to go now"..
Its pumpkin hour and my arms are over my head.
thats our cue...

Ladies and gentlemen,presenting...Mr and Mr Hamilton.

 
 
VISITORS NUMBER 3.

...and yes,shamefully we are counting.only because we miss you all so much..plus when ever we go exploring and find a new adventure we always talk to each other about who would love it here..
I remember being told the theory once, that if you can count great friends on one hand your doing well.At the time I was in my twenties and didn't understand this theory.....
                                         Now, I am very graciously aware of the fact that wonderful friendship are very touching to the heart and never something to be treated with anything less than love and respect....and perhaps a few quiet beverages starting at the dragonfly..leading to Casablahblah for pizza and a couple more beverages...then across to the OOderbery bar for a night cap....

 


 
Cosy little bar tucked away in Victoria square.
 
The ladies room....
 

 






the three musketeers

also a vunue for artists this was the latest exhibition.The artist happen to also work behind the bar and explained that the images where photos of all her friends.


Love this one.


 spending time with friends is what makes my heart sing.x
 

Fathers day at the grace.

Farmers market in Goodwood,champagne breaky in casta del la backyard then an afternoon at the Grace Establishment in Norwood parade, listening to the sweet tunes of Yo daddy mac from the Huggy bear sound system.

Not that its my cup of tea,but every Sunday is a pig on the spit in the beer garden out the back.
 
 





 
Highly recommended.fantastic venue,tasty treats.
 
 

the Veggie Vilo

 
How cool is this.
Adelaide has embraced the mobile food culture.The few I have spotted so far is the Taco cat and the New york dreams.
but this guy is different.
I could smell the food before i could see the cart.
Totally vegetarian and healthy,it all smelt amazing There is a little grill on the side where it all cooks.
 

 
Manu Parez has spent more than a decade developing his culinary skills working as a chef in restaurants in the UK,France and Japan.
As a keen rider he has combined both his passions.
The menu features a quinoa burger on a toasted rye bun with salad.YUM!
Or the gourmet option of grilled mushrooms,pan fried haloumi with onion jam and salad on a bun..
and he had them lining up...outside the uni is a pretty good place to park.
And the Adelaide council is so cool,do this at home and the council would move you on in no time....
clever guy.
