Icon17 Dalip's 45th Birthday Pictorial - with the TRF West Australian CREW!!

I had the absolute pleasure and honour of being able to start my Birthday weekend of celebrations with the wonderful TRF WA Crew....Des, Mitch, John and Sherwin...you made my birthday so very special this year..

START was at 5pm when Des picked me up at work in a cab.

FINISH was at 315am when I left the CASINO and arrived home at 4AM




It is also my wife Alison's birthday this weekend - ( we are heading out for a romantic dinner this evening)..and I received the most amazing gifts for us both from the boys.....

A bottle of Johnny Walker BLUE LABEL for me...WOW

And a WHOLE DAY IN A TOP SPA for Alison.....WOW again

You are seriously too much...thank you from the bottom of my heartUnbelievable thoughtfulness and generosity.

Then I was TREATED ALL NIGHT...they just would not allow me to flipping pay....

I had SUCH a BLAST...

SO - without further ado here is the pictorial

It began with a meet at the Scotsman PUB in Mount Lawley - Des and Sherwin :







Then John and Mitch arrived:



Then we headed to Clarences so John and Mitch could have their Strawberry CIDER









Then we headed to one of Des' families regular restaurants in Chinatown, Northbridge.....AMAZING...SERIOUSLY AMAZING..CRAB...

PICTURED HERE WITH DES



And with the owner:



on the table:



AND then off to the kitchen...and served...OH MY

















Washed down with some great beer and wine (+coke for those of us driving/not drinking!):





You can see the effect it had on Mitch



The watches (table shot)





NOW: THIS IS THE VERY FUNNY BIT

They brought me out some CRAZY CHICKEN....and I said as hot as it comes...they didn't think I could do it...but heck..YES I Could....





NOW LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO DES WHEN HE WAS FED SOME BY YOURS TRULY











More food









The sub got around:









AND I BECAME ANIMATED:







THEN DES AND I ENDED UP AT THE CASINO...VIA IS GOLF CLUB:

PICS TAKEN VERY SLYLY:





What a top top night.....

Thanks you all for looking

Hey Dalip - I'm over in the U.S. and wish I could I stopped by and said hi to the Aussie TRFers. Thanks for the pics. Looks like you had one heck of a night with some great fellows.

And happy you thought of all of us by posting the wonderful pics.

Happy birthday, Dalip.

A veritable Bacchanal.

I'm jealous as hell over all that seafood.

I love New Mexico, but I sure do miss the fresh seafood of New Orleans.

Congratulations.

Thanks for sharing

Your Sub looks Great

Poor Des it looks like he turned burning red with that Chilli Chicken.

That crab looks unbelievably delicious.

That was a great night

I know you had a happy birthday.

Be careful with that super hot food, it can take a long term toll on your intestines.

The Strawberry Cider sounds interesting

Des went a very bright red

The crab was unbelievably good....I showed Alison the pics and we are headed there next week again.

It was special to be able to spend time with those guys during this birthday weekend....great friends

Thanks for the comments on the subC....they were all trying it on and loving it. Just a perfect watch

I hear you about the intestines..I'm apologising to mine now...will go very easy on them for a while
