New CAR.. Maybe!
Can you ppl who are reading this blog cross your fingers for me? What happened last Friday was still quite unbelievable...!!! We have been thinking of changing cars lately, although more so to another newer used car. On Friday, we went into a showroom, and ended up buying a brand N-E-W car!!! guess what car? below is a clue (ours is metallic phantom black in colour)...
Got the idea? hahah. Yes, we did walk into an Audi showroom and walked out of it close to having the car, subject to finance approval! YEAH! Its an Audi A3 Sportsback 2.0 FSI 6-speed manual. FSI refers to their system of fuel injection that they use to further enhance the efficiency of fuel injection and it lowers fuel consumption. We manage to get 10k off the price they put up.. yes, you didnt read wrong. thats 10,000! Getting quite nervous as tomorrow hopefully we will know if our financing comes around. Since its on a business lease with my business, it can be quite tricky coz I am self-employed, which is seen as a higher risk purchaser.
Anyway, not to be a wet blanket, here is another pic of the beautiful car's interior, ignore the automatic transmission.. ours is definitely a manual. Its not real driving with an automatic car, cant really optimise the cars potential! :)

OK, if you are confused with the title, here is what it means.. last friday was manloks birthday. Its his 31st and we celebrated it with a bang with dinner at the famous restaurant FIFTEEN by Jamie Oliver. There you go!
Boy was it a BIG day! We both had the day off, as customary for us to take day off (officially or otherwise UN-officially.. hhaha) during our bday. It started with a visit to the hospital for me. Manlok's nice enough to wait patiently with me for 2 hours. Even went to get some stuff for me a couple of times in between! hehehe.. typical me to forget things!
Anyway, we went to TGIF for lunch and had a bit too much. Both had tummy upset after that and walked it off along Chapel St (one of the shopping strip for Melbourne...). Manage to take those classic b&w photos in those booths.. hehe.. me so ulu, dunno when it started so one of the pic had me 'nosing' around in front of the camera! haha.. I will scan the image and put it on here later!
Went to our fave shop, Retrostar to look at what we can find there. I bought 2 real used 70s cords shirt.. so cool! After that, we went to Fifteen, the Jamie Oliver restaurant in Melbourne. Manlok loves Jamie Oliver, so I booked us a cosy table there.. had to book 2 mths in advance man! But boy, was dinner soo yummy! so good that we have decided to hv dinner there every 1st friday of the month! Told them to reserve the exact same table for us automatically.. hehe.. suckers!
In summary, Manlok loved the day and was a very happy birthday boy! ;P
