You Only Get One Chance To Make A Good First Impression

Today I went to my Lisa and Ron's house for a barbecue lunch. We were greeted at the back door by their dogs Molly and Maurice. They are a very, very small breed of dog (I don't know what breed they are). They are so light and thin, you can pick them up with one hand. They are very shy dogs, but Molly liked the attention and Maurice would just quickly sniff you. I tried to pick him up and he squealed at me, which scared me. He didn't go near me after that.

They had a pool table, tennis table and dart board there, as well as an outdoor TV which was set to a music channel on Foxtel, which gave the get together a good feel. I only played one game of pool, in which I lost to Stephen by sinking the white ball after I had sunk the black. I really didn't feel like doing much because I was freezing cold, so I sat their shivering.

Mark brought over his girlfriend Angie to the get together. She is very friendly and took a special liking to Jamie and Marrissa, my two second cousins. What I didn't like was that she was always on the phone. She walked off to answer her phone twice while we were eating lunch. She also likes to hug people, as she gave hugs to my Uncle and Aunty, Mark's parents, went she arrived and when she left.

It was also Ricki's birthday and Lee came out with a surprise cake for her (her favourite apparently). It was so nice, I had two pieces. Lisa also brought out a whole lot of Trumpets. I was so tempted to have one, except I did want to be more cold than what I was.
