Its a wee tad late, but here it is none the less (Last weekend - 28 and 29 October):
On saturday we had a party to celebrate Judiets birthday. She decided that she wants a Halloween themed party and we set about making it all eerie and spooky. First on the list was a pumpkin. Having never carved a pumpkin before we set about doing it and it turned out quite well in the end. Decoration was up to Judiet and she decided that she wanted alot of candles, spider webs all over and decorated the table in green and orange. It looked awesome. For starters we served a Pan seared chicken breast served with lettuce, tomato, red pepper and cream cheese. Main meal was a Roast beef with Yorkshire pudding, roasted rosemary potatos, oven roasted veggies, asparagus and gravy. Yummy. Desert was a baked chocolate pudding with soft chocolate inside. The timing was a little out, the yorkshire puddings took longer than expected and the chocolate pudding fell in a bit, but otherwise it was okay! Great time by the people that where there (Dave, Jess, Nicole, Graeme, Judiet and I).
Sunday we where VIPS at the Samsung Train Race. This was really cool because it was an old steam train and we went from the old Krugersdorp station to Magalliessig station in the Magalliesburg. The train took long to get there, and wasnt quite as luxury as we had hoped but it was fun none the less. The whole length of the marathon is around 35km’s and alot of the runners finished before the train which was quite impressive! At the end of the race there was a HUGE tent where they served drinks and some lunch. We caught a shuttle back from the end point to the station earlier as we had other things to do, but when we got back to the station we found we where parked in and couldnt leave anyway. Luckily some very very kind people where there who gave us a lift back to our house and we went to fetch the car later once the train had arrived back and we could get the car out.
The weekend was excellent! Photos are in the gallery! Checkit!
