~~ ONYO AT THE KAMI CONCERT ~~
MATRAVILLE RSL




Well it has certainly been a big week, between Ning's brother arriving in the country, the death of my good friend Erry and a visit to the police after death threats from a former barkada member, I have found little time for much else.

Our ex-dearest Anabelle also spent a lot of time coming up with the idea to call me a hippopotamus, although this was not gratified with as much time spent finding how to spell it.
A quick check of Wikipedia reveals the following:
"The hippopotamus is semi-aquatic, inhabiting rivers and lakes in sub-Saharan Africa in groups of 5-30 hippos. During the day they remain cool by staying in the water or mud; reproduction and childbirth both occur in water, where territorial bulls preside over a stretch of river. They emerge at dusk to graze on grass. While hippos rest near each other in territories in the water, grazing is a solitary activity and hippos are not territorial on land."

This certainly does not seem to describe too well the way I spend each day of my life.
However a quick look at some photos revealed something very interesting.

These creatures have a body like mine (which is what I am sure she was trying to elude to) and a face like hers, which leads one to wonder if this is how the kids would have turned out had I ever married her. I wonder if this was her way of asking me to procreate with her?
The poor girl then went on to refer to me as a bore pig.
Again we refer to Wikipedia:
Despite their physical resemblance to pigs and other terrestrial even-toed ungulates, their closest living relatives are cetaceans (whales, porpoise, etc.).

So Anabelle appears to be really suffering some sort of confusion over what animal I am supposed to be, not to mention how to spell it, utilize the correct grammar while saying it, decide whether or not full stops are an optional extra and where one should use capitals.

ANYWAY - ENOUGH OF THAT BOLLOCKS!

Not surprisingly we took the visiting brother in law, Onyo, to the first Kami concert in our usual area of coverage. This was to be Saturday night over at the Matraville RSL club.
Probably one of the best nights in a while when it comes to attendance by barkada members and other friends.
It gave Onyo a good chance to see how we spend most of our lives nowdays, as did the following 24 hours of hanging out, eating, drinking, singing and the customary TFC.

Anyhow - enjoy the piccies below.


Twas just a small group at the start, Ning, ?, The Hippo, Casey, Analiza, Ron, Gina and Cecile prepare for a night of fun.

Analiza won the award for 'Best Dressed On Night'.

The beautiful Analiza with her lovely friend Casey.

Analiza takes time out to have a photo with The Hippo!

Ning's brother Onyo who is probably still trying to comprehend the
activities of the
G-Spot barkada!!
Seen here with Ning and Cecile.

Gina , Maria and Jasmin on the dancefloor!

The Kamis hard at it.

MR: Ning, Maria, Cecile, Lina, Jasmine, ?
FR: Onyo

All this dancing makes a Hippo tired - A brief rest is had before
heading back to the
dance floor!

Gina and Analiza.

In a very surprising development, the long lost Colonel turns up to
support our barkada
after a couple of rocky weeks.
Colonel had just returned from a week photographing hornbags in Fiji
and is seen here
with Analiza.

Kami band's Oscar is seen here with Analiza!


And finally, not wishing to miss her chance, we find Annie also with Analiza.

Thanks to everyone for a great night!

Howdee,
Last Friday saw us out of the usual club type atmosphere and on a couple of boats sailing around Sydney Harbour with some good food and the awesome Kami band.
Starting from the Star City wharf just after 6pm, the cruise went on until just after midnight, travelling up both ends of the harbour, under the Anzac Bridge (Blackwattle Bay??) and into Mosman Bay.
All are hopeful of a repeat adventure in the near future.
Below be a selection from the 300+ photos taken on the night.

If you want a night out with a great band - check this website regularly for all their upcoming performance dates.
Check out 'KAMI BAND' in the 'Blog Sections' area, below left.


The first boat of the evening docks at Star City.
This is FUNBOAT's newest ferry, coming second hand from Port Macquarie.

prior to departure.

My little sister looks pretty spectacular normally, however, for the cruise she truly excelled herself.


Star City Casino!

My cute little sister Maria as we depart Star City.

Probably Australias most photographed bridge.


If you are a bit of a funzel like myself, you are probably slightly aroused by the above shot of the former Manly ferry Baragoola.
This historic ferry is facing a rather uncertain future with little chance of someone with money taking an interest. Recent reports have said it may now be sold to a scrap merchant as the cost of retaining it is to high.
The boat being restored behind is believed to be the one that prize tool Tim Elderton is involved in.


Kami sister Amelia and myself talking up the front (I think those sea types call in the bow) of the boat.

Maria, Romel (young one-not Officer Ego from Eastlakes), Annie (mum of Rabbitohs football player Craig Wing), Ning, Ron, Gina and Kami sisters Amelia and Kethey.

Gina and Ronnie!

Kami Band - Souths Juniors

KAMI BAND

Never heard of them: CLICK HERE!

Contrary to popular belief, our bakarda (Tagalog for group of friends or similar) do not have shares in this band. Wish we did - but sadly we don't. :-) Just enjoy the band and appreciate what they all do for us.

I first come across them at East Leagues while on a night out with a group of friends. Some of these friends mentioned they usually watch them at South as well. We, of course, followed the crowd to Souths a week later to listen to them again.
This has subsequently lead to over a year of following them around these two clubs, along with many others around the Sydney area.

If you love good, loud, live music (decent music - not that noise that often passes for it nowdays) then I suggest you check them out some time.

To Oscar and the rest of the family - Thanks!


Amelia and Kethey
