So i've heard..... anyhow, now i'm back, bring it on! :) Nice to see you all again ;)

Other than your kids driving you insane, how was the trip over all?

Actually, it was great. It's a beautiful place (photos to follow later), the camping ground was excellent and the weather was mostly great.

The only (minor) problems were getting a sore back from sleeping on a camping mattress, and being woken in the middle of the night by screeching cockatoos in the trees :P The kids were really good, and enjoyed the week a lot.

Tent or trailor? I've done both, and I must admit, I almost prefer tents. :sweat:

Pretty soon: they've started packing stuff up... They'll be in their new location (Sepulveda & Hawthorne, near the Citibank office) in February.

and what is going to be there instead? :bonk:

I've no idea... Hope it's something good. :victory:

LOL! Erm, you are aware that they can be spelled either way, yesh?

"Kabob", with an extended "a", is how you actually pronounce it. Therefore people choose to spell it this way. Kebab is misleading in terms of western pronounciations, but I've seen it either way.

i checked my dictionary afterwards and realised they are the same thing. kabob is the u.s. spelling that's why i've not seen it here.

I did that too, and blinked when I saw it in the dictionary (there's also a "kabab").
You never see anything other than "kebab" in England.

Growing up my Mom always called them Shish Kabob. Here is how About.com described them:

A shish kabob is a skewer with meat and vegetables and is usually grilled. It can contain lamb, beef, fish, or chicken, and vegetables like green peppers, onions and mushrooms.
It is commonly spelled kebob, Kabob, or kebap.

Enna, you're a veritable kebob expert! :mrgreen:

I have heard of a Shish Kebab. :)

I think if anyone used a word other than "kebab" here, you'd get looked at strangely.

Well if I have to be an expert on something it might as well be skewerd meat. :hehe: :hehe:

Thanks Keps, I will remember that "kebab" pronounciation the next time I'm in the UK. Wouldn't want to get any funny looks while ordering my food. :sweat: :bonk:

Lol and lol, Enna! :rofl:

There are many different versions of Kabob's. Shish kabob is one, and there is also shami kabob (which I love) and many others. Different countries have different types of kabobs. I think my favourite would be kabob tikka. Mmmmm... :drooling:

Mmmm, shish kebap, yammy :drooling:

We better move this conversation over to the food thread. :sweat:
