Pre dinner snacks last weekend with friends from our street

Missed taking photos of dinner as I was the BBQ chef. Arrived at table after turning off and cleaning up to find the platter of sausages and lamb steaks GONE. (Funny lot had hidden mine and left the empty platter) :eek:

One of their famous apple, raspberry and rhubarb crumble with ice cream (ended up going through 2 litres with 6 adults and 7 kids)

Then we had post-dessert desserts - yummy (used yogurt as the filler)

I can plan anything financially - like my retirement in 10 years ago so I can go to AKL and visit my friends over there more often and eat at places like that @Rugby ...
