dMw's BigBrother BBQ

[TeaLeaf]

The BigBrother BBQ

1.30pm, Day 1.
The housemates arrive at BigBrother's house and the BBQ begins.
Attendees:
Mr & Mrs Squonk
Mr & Mrs VincentVega
Mr & Mrs Doorman
Mr & Mrs TeaLeaf
JonnyAppleSeed
JB
GhostFaceKillah
DarkAngel

BigBrother's BBQ is lit and the food is cooked.  Some of the housemates are introduced to Halloumi, the only cheese you can put on the BBQ and *doesn't* melt through the grills.  


2.30pm, Day 1
BigBrother notices the effects of the alcohol starting to set in as JAS has difficulty seeing.  
JB apparently hasn't noticed that the other housemates stole the bottom half of his trousers yet.  
The House Doctor is put on stand by in case the situation deteriorates.


2.45pm, Day 1
Doorman comes to the diary room and complains about the strength of the sun.  BigBrother decides to supply the housemates with a shade so that they do not get sun burnt.  Several Atkins diets fall by the way side as the BigBrother bananas, barbecued in foil with butter, brown sugar, chocolate and jamaican rum, prove to be a big hit with the housemates.  


3.00pm, Day 1.
BigBrother gives instructions to VincentVega and Squ0nk explaining the day's first task.  
If they succeed they will get a special entertainment pass.  
VincentVega and Squ0nk discuss tactics.


3.10pm, Day 1
After much argument, the housemates decide Squ0nk should be the first to undertake the challenge as he clearly has the most impressive helmet within the group.


3.50pm, Day 1
The challenge proceeds, although some of the housemates notice that VincentVega is not finding the task as easy as he first thought it might be.  The housemates blame the debilitating effects of the alcohol they consumed earlier and all seem to be struggling with their hand to eye coordination.  Their ability to hit the ball with the bat rapidly diminishes.


4.15pm, Day 1.
The housemates drink to absent friends.
The housemates decide to form a social committee and to explore two further events, a trip to Santa Pod later this year and a trip to the Spa Grand Prix next year.
BigBrother keeps all glasses filled, all empty cans replaced with full ones.  The ice chests get used heavily as the now very nicely chilled alcohol is consumed.

4.30pm, Day 1
In Round 2 of the task, the housemates suffer their first casualty of the day.  In his first match of the task, JAS employs an unusual 'high ball' tactic against the shorter VincentVega.  Still smarting from his earlier defeat against Squ0nk, VincentVega lunges at the fast moving ball and is literally blasted off the court, leaving only his shoes.  BigBrother calls JAS to the diary room to chastise him for his behaviour.


6.30pm, Day 1
The housemates are called to the diary room and asked to nominate someone for eviction.  After each housemate has voted, BigBrother announces that the housemates have voted Smite out of the house.  But as Smite had decided that ripping out a bathroom was a more exciting use of his Saturday than joining the other housemates in the BigBrother House for the BBQ, BigBrother is unable to evict Smite as he is not in the house at all.  It is eventually decided that Mr & Mrs Squ0nk should be evicted instead as they have told other housemates that they are concerned about the fruit of their loins and how well 'grandad' was managing with them.

6.55pm, Day 1
Some of the housemates find the commotion all too much and DarkAngel decides to go to sleep in the snug. :whistle:


7.15pm, Day 1
After the earlier completion of the task, BigBrother announces to the housemates that they have passed the task and rewards them by supplying additional food and drink for the evening.


9.30pm, Day 1.
The weather, having stayed sunny for the whole afternoon begins to turn a bit blustery and the temperature drops.   The housemates finally decide to retire into the house and have several drinks to warm up.  Wine and beer were liberally consumed, with fresh perculated coffee as a chaser.  The latter proved to be a 'house favourite' when caramel syrup and 10yr old single malt whiskey were added.

11.30pm, Day 1
BigBrother asks all housemates into the diary room.  It was a squeeze getting everyone in, but eventually the housemates manage it.  BigBrother asks them to nominate people for an immediate eviction.  Mr & Mrs VincentVega are nominated and BigBrother supplies a taxi to take them back to their abode.  

3.00am, Day 2.
The housemates finally decide to go to bed leave BigBrother's house in transit van masquerading as a taxi.

8.30am, Day 2
After a difficult and somewhat drunken night, DarkAngel appears remarkably fresh after a good sleep and a shower.  


The final toll:
40 beef burgers
32 sausages
22 bananas
12 part boned chicken breasts
12 chicken drum sticks
1kg pork loin fillet, diced for the creation of DIY kebabs
1kg milk chocolate
Half a kilo of Halloumi
A hefty supply of rolls, salads, kebab-suitable peppers, mushrooms etc, relishes and soft drinks.
A quarter litre of Jamaican rum
44 cans of Fosters
12 bottles of Michelob Ultra (the low carb beer for those on the Atkins diet :lmao:)
4 bottles of Budweiser
1 bottle Petillant de Syrah (yes, that's the sparkling rose that made an appearance at LAN V)
6 bottles of white wine
9 bottles of red wine
Two thirds of a bottle of malt whisky (this disappeared into everyone's coffee)

and 2 pints of lager for Doorman whilst he waited for the others to turn up at the hotel before the BBQ kicked off.

We had much fun :cheers:  :beer:
We managed to raise some money for the dMw Server Fund :huggy:
We will definitely do it again. :yes:

Quality day. Big thanks to TL and Mrs TL for the hospitality and the food. Nice to meet VV for the 1st time and thanks to his misses for some quality entertainment........ I'll let VV explain. Nice to meet the rest of the guys again. Definately must do another one and the santa pod and spa trips as well.

[Doorman]

A marvelous time! I can't say more than that. We arrived back at the Hilton at avout 3:30 (I think) had another pint, sang some songs along with an inebriated wedding party and finally made our way to bed. In the corridor were two ladies of the wdding party who were in a far worse state than us. They eventually fell in a heap of giggling knickers and stocking tops! :blush:   We bade them goodnight. :lol: . During the night Mrs. Doorman, as ladies do, got up to take a leak. Unfortunately she took the wrong door and was horrified when the door clicked closed behind her. She was in the corridor starkers!    I was woken by frantic banging on the door. "Who is it?" I called. Made her wait a bit.  :devil:

A memorable weekend capped off by sleeping through the Grand Prix.

Fantastic  

Great fun ….Huge thanks to the Leaf household that held the finest BBq ever ….
Masses of food and drink and more food and drink left me feeling like a stuffed pig
The quality of the cooking and hosting skills were second to non

Bananas yummy

TL’s pact with the weather gods seems to have worked….He must have sold his soul to the devil to get such a fine day
Also not only did he sell his soul but gave up most of his facial hair (eyebrows and lashes) to the BBq fire demons. Maybe that was the trade off

Bananas scrumptious

The charging of glasses was non-stop and a dry whistle could not be found in the house all day/night

Bananas Dribble

Leaf towers will never be the same again …and as I write this I hope the clean up crew have finished and normality has taken over

Great to meet Doorman’s better half for the first time. Having to wait an hour for a taxi to return us to the real world Aria leans over “ that’s it then lets get rat TANGO'd” I just blushed, spouted a nervous giggle and thought I all ready am ( Jeez they are both beer monsters)

Too many funny moments to mention a wonderful BBq

Thanks again to TL ……

Right I am off to the shop to buy rum, brown sugar, chocolate and one more thing …erm what was it ….ahh that’s it bananas

Oops! A sensitive soul. That was merely a jocular reference to the cheesey grin. Nothing more, nothing less. Now get off that chair and calm down.
