A Trip Up North...

Southies have crossed the boundary and ventured into the land of wonderful North.

What will behold 17 such men and women (plus one baby) from the tribe of Regeneration?

And so the story goes...

Conversation in the oven. The capsicums and drumsticks didn't get along.

Shirls (Headchef) in the kitchen whipping up scallop pasta.

Truc acquiring a new talent.

Concentrating hard indeed...

Slightly burnt capsicums. Helped Shirls to peel them but burnt my finger.
I will eat you just you wait!
