Soldiers and Steaks

Yesterday evening my colleges and I were invited to a barbecue by a really nice Iraqi bloke. On the menu was Rib eye steaks, Pork loin and Ribs with flat bread and a potato dish on the side which contained lots of cheese. This was all washed down with alcohol free lager on account of the no alcohol rule that the Americans have here.

There were some US soldiers invited and although all who were invited did not turn up, there were still two Englishmen, one Scotsman, one Welshman, Three Americans, A Nepalese Man and a Iraqi man in attendance. We all had a great time, the food was excellent and we tried to put the world to rights over a nice cup of Iraqi tea.

Apparently there is always a barbecue on Fridays and next Friday we have been promised there will be more good food and bagpipes involved, I can't wait!!
