Lived to tell it all

The great thing this week will be bringing, is more happiness and smiles to everyone around me, including me. Yes, it's wedding season and after counting about 7 bachelorettes dancing the night away at Tiger Tiger on Saturday night's not-so-debaucherous-as-I-thought party, we are on the way to a great upcoming wedding weekend. (Did that make any sense?)

After a month or two of planning, we were able to see whether all this hard work (majority my friends) really pays off. We pitched up at Dr Yoni's house to prepare the food and set up all the decorations. Our dear inquisitive friend was starting to sneak her head around the corner or out the window, where we were hanging up the giant penis piñata. But after I threatened to come upstairs and break her new pair of Pradas in half if she peered one more time, she didn't make another peep.



Piñata hung - excuse the pun - and sweets and decor looking superb, we bought her downstairs to the celebrations. First up was the surprise guest and no, not a stripper. All those bits flying around didn't sound like a good idea, so instead we hired a bellydancer. She arrived, dressed our bride-to-be and along with the 2 dances she did as an intro, she taught all the guests bellydancing basics for 45 minutes. Tons of laughter, booty shaking and abdominal exercises later, we sat down to the next part... supper then questions.

Last Monday, we interogated Steve with about 20 questions about him and Dr Yoni. Obviously we filmed this and then set it up to film her answers. Turns out these 2 people actually know each other. Can you believe it. In all honesty, the video was tons of fun to prepare, interview and watch again after some amateur editing done by Fat Pam.



Our last victim was a piñata that was hanging outside filled with sweets and accessories Dr Yoni had to dress up with for the night out. Two minutes later there was absolutely nothing left of the pinata and all the sweets on the ground the girls swiftly helped clean up and dispose of.

Toiger Toiger bound we were and 5 hours later after dancing on every part of that dancefloor to the speakers to hanging out - what felt like the entire time - at the shooter bar, we left and head back for toasted sarmies and cheese cake at 04:00.



What our Dr Yoni appreciated? She didn't throw her name away and she will remember her bachelorette party, which for her was the best outcome of the night. And... well the little whisper to me while we were sitting at the table eating our cheesecake: "You know what Robs, I'm very very lucky to have Steve" put a big smile on my face
