~~ BROCK & SCOTT'S B'DAY BASH ~~

Twas just like the days of old, getting together for a party - food, drinkies and karaoke being the order of the day. The only difference was the following days without the gossiping ferals of old who chose to make the aftermath of every party a very miserable affair.

Some of the great people from the old days, mixed with a whole new selection of others. It was a day and evening to remember, and gave me a look back into why it can be sometimes be fun to be a part of a Filipino community, devoid of the rectal scum that penetrates where it is unwanted.

Highlight of the evening?
Well there was a few of these, but meeting Keith's new lady for the first time was certainly up there. As was catching up again wit Sonny Boy's family from all around the world.
Of course, copious amounts of Tanduay makes any evening extra special.

So sit bit, grab a box of tissues if you need, and enjoy all the sizzling antices of the biggest party of 2011 --- thus far.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONNY-BOY

~~ AUSTRALIA DAY 2011 ~~

PART 1

Howdee all, as is the custom on Australia Day, we all set forth to Maroubra Beach to eat drink and be merry with our friends.
Certainly turned out be the hottest one that we have had yet, despite a strange fog that enveloped much of the area during most of the day.
No captions with this lot as I am just about to head on home from the shop after a long day.
So please just enjoy our first lot of shots from a truly awesome day.

Thank you for sharing our photographic Australia Day with us.

Part 2 will appear next week.

VALE: BILL SULLIVAN

It is with immense sadness I advise of the passing away of my dear family friend Bill Sullivan.

Bill was always my driving force in the 'Philippine Railway Historical Society', he was always a very supportive friend and no more generous and kind hearted man has ever graced the planet.

A proper memorial will soon be written - for the moment I am just to upset to even think.

RIP - Bill, our great loss is heavens great gain.

~~ KAPAMILYA FIESTA 2010 ~~
Pt 2

As the evening wore on, the doors were opened for people to flood the hall in anticipation of a great evenings entertainment, with a mixture of local entertainers and some well known celebrities from back in the Philippines.

Dennis Padilla opened the show with a couple of hours endless promoting of ABS-CBN and other companies, seperate by brief periods of entertainment and competitions that lead to more advertising.

Derek Ramsay also starred on the night, along with his extremely stunning girlfriend Angelica.

Cynthia, Rajin (yawning) and Latrell (looks already asleep) watch the evenings entertainment.

Our mate Bernie during a competition with Dennis Padilla during one of the competitions.

But most important of the evening, from the aswangs personal opinion, was Ms Angelica Panganiban. One of the cutest that the Philippines has to offer, she sung, was funny and even tried her best to imitate Aussie's.

The night was complete.
