Tetamu dari Belgium

30 April 2009, jam 1.30 pagi tibalah tetamu yang dinanti-nanti, Dr. A and family from Ghent, Belgium. Inilah tetamu yang rumah mereka kami nak ziarah masa ke Europe ari tu tapi tak kesampaian sebab kereta rosak kat Holland. Makanya kami ditemukan di bumi Birmingham.


Ah and family took a train at 10.43 pm and arrived at Birm New Street at 1.00 am, pukul 1.30 pagi dapat phone call and bila jenguk kat keluar tingkap nampak taxi depan rumah. Akhirnya sampai juga mereka setelah 2 hari di London. Rupanya meke tersalah beli tiket Midland train yang slow tu, so depa kena tahan tak bagi naik Virgin train yang laju itu, tapi Allah nak tolong, supervisor tu cepat2 suruh meke naik virgin train tu sebelum train tu jalan.



Dah lama tak jumpa maka sampai 3 pagi kami berborak sambil temankan Ah and wife makan mee bandung kow Mama (perasan lagik, sori ye) and chocolate cake kow Mama. Anak2 Ah, Hilmiyah and Hilman dah lama lena.

Mama's moist choc cake, taruk horlicks


On Friday 1 st May 209, brought them to Queen Anne, then to Portmeirion and Wedgwood, Stoke-on-Trent. Emm 2 kotak nak kena shipping nih, boleh tahan jugak surgeon kita ni shopping. Mama pun tumpang shopping jugak, tambak koleksi Portmeirion yang dah sedia ada. Beli..... jangan tak beli cik kiah time sale ni, nanti nyosal. Balik dari Stoke which was about 1 hour drive, berjoget lagi kat dapur, masak untuk tamu dinner pulak. Invited Dr. Mimi who is also Ah's friend in USM Medical School. Papa invited Azli and family for dinner as well. Cooked asam pedas sea bass, sea bass masak kicap, sayur campur and ikan masin.



2nd May: After a dose of nasi lemak, Papa brought them to Lea Marston Carboot (tempat Mama kena pickpocket tu...). Mama dok umah jaga budak2 sambil prepare the ingredients for singgang kambing for Birm Malaysian Community Summer BBQ at Cannock tomorrow. We were invited for lunch at Dr.Mimi's house in Aston. Then to ASDA and East and West supermarket, tempat Mama beli halal meat and chicken. Mak oii, harga ayam naik lagi dari 2.89 pounds per kilo to 3.29. Cam mana nak business ni??



3rd May, patutnya bawak Ah pi Studley Carboot, the biggest Carboot in West Midlands tapi ingatkan hujan takut pulak carboot tutup. Anyway Ah and co have got to catch their train to London this morning as their flight to Malaysia is tonight. Sempatlah jamu nasi dage with chicken curry and gulai udang kat kawan baik Mama ni. Tapaukan Mummy Izan and Daddy Yoh of Egham some nasi dage and singge kambing (p.s: See you guys there end of May insyallah).


Ah and Na, this is the carboot sale that U have missed. Lain kali kena datang lagi ni...
