Home Sweet Home

Do you like the new look of the Rooster site? I thought it was about time I gave it an update. Well I am just about to head back to Kuwait after a months long rest in Australia and to be honest I am not sure why I came home as it is now proving difficult to think of being back in bloody Kuwait. As the saying goes Australia where the bloody hell are you? Kuwait mate stinking sandy smelly Kuwait that's where the bloody hell I am. hehehehe but ya got to do what you got to do.

I guess the hardest thing about going back to the Middle East is that I have to give up all the lovely wine and food I have been consuming since arriving. Although I am now labeling Kuwait as DETOX CAMP to get myself sorted again! Oh but really how good is the wine! Its not home made its real! Real I tell you!

So other than drinking my self silly every night and diminishing mum's wine stock what else have I done since being back down under? Lets see I've done a lot of laying in the sun as the winter sun here in Queensland is still fab its like an Irish Summer :) I have also caught up with lots of friends, done lunch and coffee and dinner with almost everyone. Got stupidly drunk with Tim in a Brisbane pub and found my self doing cartwheels across and dance floor, but that was not the main attraction at the pub Tim's dancing proved to be show stopper! I also went to Melbourne and did some serious shopping with the biggest bargain hunter in the world - Meabh Cullinane! Seriously if there is a $10 skirt out there that girl will find it! Also caught up with the Melbourne family. Um what else did I mention I've been drinking lots of wine? Took Mum to the Ballet in Brissy and we pretended to be ladies for the day. I also spent some time with Sam and Jess (note ages 11 and 14 so only one glass of wine there) Um and that my friends is about it. I have some photos below, but they are mostly for me to remember how beautiful the sunshine coast is whilst I am wipping the sand out of my eyes.

Take care all and till next time.....

Dearest Ali,
It was so wonderful to see you again. Miss Sara and i miss you very much and we were so sorry not to have been able to spend some more time with you when you were home. I hope that you had a great time catching up with friends and family and by the sounds of it a good stretch in Kuwait is what you need to dry out.
Well you can't stay away for too long as we need our special friend back and also you are soon to become a very special Auntie Ali to our new little bundle of joy on its way.
Miss your big happy smiles and your never ending love, laughter and happiness. Can't wait to have you back on Aussie soil again for good.
You are very special to us and we will miss you very much until we see you again.
All our love and friendship,

Miss Sexy legs Sara and Lang-lang xoxoxoxo
