We decided to have a spit braai for my birthday. Of course it rained cats and dogs in the morning so while Shirley got the lamb from the butcher I went off to buy 2 gazebos. Of course once the gazebos went up the rain stopped!
The lamb went on at 11:20am and we ate at about 7:30pm. The naysayer ‘experts’ that arrived at 5pm said it wasn't cooked, but it was cooked to perfection. Tender and juicy. We fed about 20 adults and 20 kids, although the kids had boerewors rolls earlier. There was plenty to spare, not bad for a 15kg lamb.
Needless to say it took a lot of restraint to pace ourselves with the beers from morning to evening. But we managed and had a great party. I think the oldies music and the disco ball helped a lot!
Thanks to Shirley, Neil and Alex for all their help to make the day a special one!
