Loads of photos on this post so be patient while its loading. On Friday we went to The Royal Melbourne Show and had a great time. It is an annual agricultural event to promote and display livestock, produce and rural merchandise. It also has games & rides to attract the young and old. There was also a huge variety of showbags for sale. We were tempted to buy a couple of the showbags which ranges from chocolates (Ken's fav - Cadbury showbag) to fishing equipment (worth $50 but said to contain $300 plus worth of fishing stuff). In the end we bought a showbag which has 100 sticks of incense for $10. We decided to buy it coz our living area smells like a kitchen. ;-P Oh the highlight of this event for us was the Bengal Cats. Amazing!! We have decided if we were to have a cat, it HAS to be a Bengal Cat. The kittens were retailing for $800 each. Trust me once you see them (I've got pictures & videos), you will know what I mean.

On Sunday (11 Sept) we attended the Nike X Stussy Court Forces Party at Someday Gallery. Not bad ... we had fun although we didn't know anyone though we could recognise a few familiar faces from the sneaker queues and sneaker shops around here.
Stocking up the fridge & freezer for 3 weeks. We went grocery shopping at Queen Victoria today just 2 hours before they were closing. Things were going at bargain prices and we couldn't help but to over buy. :-P Imagine the boxes of fruits and tomatoes - We bought them for A$2 per carton and the bunch of celery for A$1. We also bought some cod (for $5), salmon (for $8) and prok loin. Gee looks like we are really running a catering business yah?
Hmm Shopping spree wasn't like this when we were back home. It was toys, shoes and clothes.
