OZZIE BBQ in ABERDEEN!!!!
 
Hi All,

Paul and I are holding an Ozzie BBQ in June in our costa del Australia garden! heee heee. We have made it an Australian fancy dress and are really "going to town" with the decorations etc.

However we are finding it very hard for ideas on fancy dress, especially for the girls? So far we have come up with aboriginee, Kylie, Crocodile Hunter, Dame Edna, Kangaroo, Koala (etc), Oz cricket player (boring).

We have been trawling the net but not much ideas?

Any ideas welcome? !!!

How about OzTennisplayer - girls can come in the 'Scud' (Mark Phillippoussis's nickname folks)!:D This would be a death sentence in Aberdeen. :D

If I can think of anything I'll post it later.

I remember doing a pig on the spit in Banchory once.

For the girls look up Kath and Kim. Either that or Prisoner Cell Block H.

Kath and Kim is on the Living channel if you have satellite. I haven't watched it yet but it is a cult program in Oz and has received excellent reviews here - even raising to the heights of Pick of the Day in quite a few newspapers. One review I read said it is a more realistic view of Melbourne suburban life than Neighbours!

Last BBQ I had just outside Aberdeen in Cove Bay was under an Umbrella.
Had to throw the brolly out eventually as was stinking of bbq snags for months.
