28th May 2006 Massoc Bbq
Sunlight as bright as 11am at 6am, Squirrels out from their long built winter nest, Frisbee flying across ur window, hearing Linda singing to Aerosmith, ... BBQs
One of the things which i do the most during summer and spring time in Leeds, is going for lotsa bbq outings. Its like a weekly thingyee. Eating out bbq is sooo way different with Malaysia where u have to circum. to the heat. Its 24/7 Genting/or cooler weather during Summer and Spring. Well except for one time it was so mega hot in Spring.
I guess for most of us Malaysians, BBQs are like mamak sessions for us minus the rotis and sirup ais limaus. I really enjoy al;l of the bbqs i attend and organised. We have bbqs just about every where and every place, the parks Lupton Residences, Leeds Hyde Park, Knightsbridge..etc.
Also it is during bbq times, we got to know new friends. Friends of ours will invite friends of theirs. And i guess it is then u relaised how many Malaysians are there in Leeds. I only had 3 bbqs with the locals during my stay at Leeds. One thing i learned from them, is learning how to play frisbee. Correction... you dont need to learn how to play a frisbee... just throw it!
I always thought frisbees are for dogs which are bigger than Cookie. Didnt know there's so much fun playing with it. Seeing the different ways people throw a frisbee. And the hillarious falls people make when they try to catch a frisbee. I got a frisbee of my own too. Got it from Red-5 Store. Coolest stall ever. My frisbee make sounds and its stable.
I learnt the art of preparing a bbq all by yourself. Starting a fire, maintaining the fire, wats the best marinate, wats the best to bring. I just love bbqs then, coming back to Malaysia was difficult because i know the bbqs outings are so little and most wont rather go out/do something else. Cant blame them, cos of the sweaty and sticky effect we get after every bbq.
Back in Leeds, Its so fun to shop for bbq. Go with your friends. dont do it alone. Shopping for groceries is always fun with someone around. At leeds i guess the most common shopping place all of yorkshire go is Morrisons. " More reasons to shop at Morrisons" is their slogan. lolx. Yea, you will end buying lotsa sausages, hams, chicken wings, bbq sauces, corn, and MARSHMELLOWS. Marshmellows is a must! i repeat a must for us.Heating up ur marshmellows by the bbq will give it a crunchy effect on the outside and a nice sweet taste after the crispy cover. Marinate chicken with good bbq sauce. Heinze is the best. A good bbq sauce makes the different. And Honey too. =).
Bbqs have become so much part of our weekly routine that even the girls are quite pro at it too. Talking abt bbqs i heard that in aussie, the people bbq at the beach. Sorta reminds me of batu ferringhi bbqs with a level monkeys. During bbqs, you will see who are the gentleman who are the curi makan the most. lolx. Lotsa things you can observe and have fun with.
Max one time bought a rocket like frisbee which makes rocket sounds whenever it flies thru the air. Miss that toy man. And oh music! Music is damn damn syiok in a bbq. Gives the groovee baby. Pete brought a boomberang in one of the bbqs and it broke one of the windows of lupton residence.
Even when i look thru at my old blog, i notice the number of times i mention the word bbq.
It sucha norm for us back in England. Bbqs brings people together , brings smiles, and truly makes your time in Leeds memorable, well at least it has for me.
Bewow are some bbq pictures, its a Massoc bbq session... 28th May 2006. God Bless!
Me kena buli again. =P
