Now we know all the ladies have had chance to scream and shout but I reckon its only fair the guys should be able to do their "Well done mate!" and dish out burley and masculine hand shakes...
Most Popular Question : "Why did I do it?"
Most Popular Answer : "Because after 7 years I either proposed or risked losing a few vital organs in my sleep, its a small price to pay!"
No but seriously, you know when you love somebody and nothing else matters, thats where I am right now and there's no better place.
As such that doesn't mean I havent loved Chep over the last 7 years, lets just say that if you were trying to build a castle from stone and people kept blunting your tools you wouldnt have much luck would you? - I hear all of you that know me saying "say no more"...thanks guys!
Are they saying "say no more" because they are lost, they just don't want me to start ranting or because they understand the glaringly obvious truth hidden behind a analogy? I dunno, but its out of good faith so i'll take it and love you all the more for it!

These little beauties couldn't escape my eye when shopping, only 1.20GBP and just what every grown man needs. Ladies and Gentlemen I introduce you to Hog Pants!!!!

What would a post be without a food review...
Now lets get to the important stuff, there are some two additional meals to shout about here in adelaide which it would be criminal for me not to let the world know about:
1. 3 Meat Outback Combo - RedBack Chargrill, Marion Shopping Centre, Food Court
This meal is pure heaven, admittedly faced with a dozen fast food outlets and a few random food outlets you never know what to choose. I picked this one as a bit of a wild card and it paid off!
The meal is $8.20 (3.28GBP) and consists of chargrilled chicken, pork, aussie steak and rice. The chicken and pork have a tasty barbeque flavour to them and the aussie steak is swimming in a delicious sauce. This is the kind of meal you would expect to find yourself eating when your drunk and raving about it the next day, only to find that when you try it sober it's awful. Only guess what you would try it and it would be just as delicious - Matt's wonderful world of food rating of 5/5!!!!
2. Organic Pizza - GoodLife Restaurant, Jetty Road, Glenelg
This was a restaurant Sel recommended having read that the english cricket team ate here and highlighted it as a bit of a hidden treasure (I'm still wondering if they poisened them with the way they performed though ;)). Apparantly the review said the place was nothing special to look at, but having climbed the two dozen steps to the upstairs restaurant we were greated with a wonderfully quaint and homely environment. The staff were pleasant and weren't the usual pretentious idiots you get in somewhere that claims to be organic ("Oh no sir our food is prepared by vessel virgins then marinated by the souls of 13 dead kings" - you get the picture).
Having been given a seat ouside on the veranda - we had a lovely view of glenelg highstreet and moseley square beyond. Granted the menu wasn't extensive but when people are trying to serve the best food it doesnt make it hard to choose, hmmm organic chicken, duck, shrimp - chicken it is! (The specials included a lamb curry pizza!lol) The pizza's came in two sizes 9" (for one) & 12" (for two) - worried that I would come across as glutonous I ordered a 9" with no starter and a side dish of veggies.
Waiter: "So you want a veggie pizza and a side order of veggies?"
Me: "You can never have enough veggies!"
Waiter: "I guess you're right"
Me.....So why did he bloody ask????? Noted: Only mistake of the evening!
The pizza and veggies were great! Tasty, fresh and had all the digestive enhancing ingredients you would expect of a large sunday lunch. The pizza alone would have been enough but with the veggies to share they really rammed us full lol!
With no further ado a Matt's wonderful world of food rating of 4/5

12 Songs
I've decided to formalise the insanity which is my love to creating new song titles by establishing a list of 12 song titles that will one day become an international best seller! "I know" - How exciting ;)
I've decided to start us off with a lovely little number I conjured up last tuesday when using a pedestrian crossing that connects the end of the Glenelg tram line and the beginning of Victoria Square's pedestrian pathways in Adeliade's CBD. The song's called "I found Mekka in the middle of the street". Yeah, yeah..wait ...i know...it makes it sound like mekka is something that is that easily identifiable, like a big red round ball, with the letters printed right across it. But come on, lets smooth the edges here, if we can't be a bit silly then why would I even have been born - wait, does that mean i'm a joke?? :S
I thought we could start it off by using the sound sample we took when in Dubai of the locals being called to prayer, then we enter into a Madness-esk Ska style verse....think its sounds like things that dreams are made of! I'm thinking we could kidnap the animator from the Gorillas and get him to do some funky animation depicting the whole song as if we were all banana people - you know yellow and really niave like the smurfs.
Lyrics are welcome aslong as they contain profane and non-sensical words which aim to cut as close to offending, but not, as possible - in order to push the boundaries of what is politically correct for us to say.
How does it sound? Awesome!
Note: In particular I'll be thoroughly disappointed if Father J can't oblige with a good few lyrics for verse one. I know you have the power within you Father J - release the madness.

A place in the sun...
Soo we arrived back in Adelaide...slept, panicked, ate and then panicked a little more.
At first all looked bleak, then as if by the magic of a lone wizard disbursing all his might to escape certain death, we found a new rental place. It's wicked, comes with three blonde swedish house maids, a fat bar tender to fetch beer, and a collie and a wolf ...Excellent!
If i said anymore on the subject I would be diluting its sheer beauty - heaven forbid. Signing out!
