It’s BBQ time…

Phew, what a day. It started off with an early morning hangover, I raised myself and opened the windows, DAMN it was hot in there.

Apon waking, I had to go back into town to pickup my car from the night before. I had ventured to the pub, drank lots and lots and lots of Magners Cider and ended up in the fine establishment we call “The Brush“. Once I had recovered my wheels, the day was ahead of me, all I needed to do is decide what I wanted to do with it.

I phoned my compadre Luke and invited him over, possibly for some BBQ offerings, all I needed was the meat. As he ventured over, he contacted another amigo; Ryan and suddenly things were looking up.

I prepped the BBQ, opened the house to the world and waited for the triumphant heroes to arrive. They promptly arrived, boasting an impressive array of meats and alcoholic beverages. Each meat type was imaculately prepared by myself. We feasted on burgers, spicy chicken, ribs and other various titbits until bellies were full to bursting.

Then came the retro gaming, we cracked open the N64 and loaded up Goldeneye (possibly the greatest FPS ever). Being a Halo convert, it took time to revert back to the N64 joypad but once that boundary was broken, the streets ran red with blood………..most of it mine ;) Mario Kart 64, Pokemon Stadium (Run Rattata Run!) followed.

The gaming wasnt enough for us though, we were swiftly joined by Cheg who brought the tally to 4. We ventured into the midday heat and played some football, this lasted until Cheg decided to throw the ball at Luke and destroy my mums rose bush.

This however was a blessing in disguise. Jumping in the car, we drove down to the local park and played yet more football. This moved onto the 5 a side pitch which resulted in a 2 on 2 game. Myself and Cheg won 7-1, Luke playing in bare feet. To finish we played 21’s, what a game. I managed to clinch the first game with a flourish towards the end after some stiff competition from Luke. The second however wasnt so fun, a first to 11 match saw me run in last with Ryan winning followed closely by Luke and Cheg. We returned home and went our separate ways.

What a day, this is what life is supposed to be like…….oh and I have Star Wars Episode III now as Luke left it behind :)

21’s is an awesome game. I was impressed with the skill level of 4 white non-baller’z.

Also - Goldeneye - 20 kills - 1 death.

BOOYAA!
