Did two things this weekend that I have never done before.....

On Friday night I went to watch a Muay Thai fight... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muay_Thai

and on Sunday I went out with a friend on the back of his motorcycle into the Adelaide Hills. We visited this microbrewery, which was really good. If mum and dad make it over, I visit there would be a good day out... http://www.ahcb.com.au/

I went out for a night out on Saturday night.... and bumped into someone I went to school with! He lives in Adelaide with his Australian girlfriend. His name is Scott. I didn't know him at school, but started chatting with him because he was wearing a kilt. I asked him what part of Scotland he was from and just about died when he said Banchory! Small world! :)

So I overcame my avoidance towards dancing this week and tried out Zumba for the first time! This is a latin insprired dance class, that involves lots of butt shaking. My friend assured me that I did not look like a giraffe having an epileptic fit! :)
I also tried Body Jam which is a hip hop style dance class. And I expect that I was equally proficient at this!
But I will persevere...!
Aside from this Gary and Carole's invitation to the wedding arrived. Phew! So I definitely am invited! :)

I went to Melbourne at the weekend. Eating, drinking and shopping were the activities. On the way home from the pub on Friday night, I ate a McChicken Nugget! But I am consoling myself that this doesn't necessarily mean I fell off the vegetarian wagon, as I reckon there was probably no chicken in it anyway.

Here is the dress that I have bought to wear at Gary & Carole's wedding. It is greyish-brown and has leather straps.

I'm thinking orange or turqoise accessories..... and a little jacket for wearing outside.
