Gathering at Mak and Siew Ling's new house

Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Mak!!

Mak and Siew Ling have just bought a three-bedroom house in East London and invited a few friends over yesterday for their house warming party.

Frankie and I arrived at their house around 3.15pm to help out as the party would start at 5pm. We weren't the first to arrive... Chong and Jane were already there busy helping in the kitchen. Nevermind as someones claimed would be earlier than us were nowhere seen yet...


Busy kitchen

The menus for tonight have been carefully thought through...



and more...


... or shall I say we'll all going to be their guinea pigs?


chop chop chop...


Head chef Mak is working now...

A peek of what's on the menu.


Believe it or now, when a group of Chinese people get together, they will usually a) eat and b) gamble. We are no different. With tonight Lotto's jackport a whopping £18millions so without a doubt we all agreed to buy 10 numbers, one for each of us to increase the chances of winning. Frankie then went out to get the tickets but unfortunatly no nearby agent's selling lotto, would this mean we will just lose out the chances without even trying... no! not when we have our dear friend Mr. Lau, a Lotto registered online account holder!


So there he is, purchasing the winning tickets for us! ha!

Around 5pm, dinner was ready. Let's take a closer look at the dishes on table.



Yummy yummy!

Not forgetting the must-have group photo



Ok now let's get the party started!



"Emm... what am I going to have?"



After few hours of none stop eating and none stop dreaming of how we were going to spend the £1.8million each from the lotto prize, we somehow still left with almost half the portion of food untouched....



Everyone just stayed back a little late for more chatting and gossiping while waiting for the lotto's result.

So the ultimate question is, did we? did we not?

Ya, you guess it right, no we didn't win the lotto, not even the lowest £10 prize!

But we all had a great time. Thank you both!
