1st Anniversary of Manmums Kuala Lumpur

It’s hard to beleive that it has been 1 year since the inaugural gathering of our stay-at-home dads playgroup in Kuala Lumpur. Our league of gentlemen with children under their trusted care started out as 3 and was mentioned in my blog last year. It has now expanded to a dozen or so plus children from all corners of the globe.

To celebrate this auspicious occasion, an original member, Michael opened his home for a party complete with presents, dress up (for the children only!) and cake. It has been fantastic to meet up with a great bunch of lads and I have been lucky enough to make some great friends. Isaac certainly looks forward to the Manmums playgroup every Monday and furthermore, we will appear in a future edition of Expatriate Lifestyle, the photo shoot already having been carried out

The 2010 edition of the Manmum Olympics will finally get underway this Thursday with a session of 10 pin bowling.



We party all day in this house

The inmates are rebelling






Isaac very excited about his Ben-10 gift

Sometimes being a manmum can turn you a bit potty

  1. Hi Jono

    Great blog -really enjoyed reading about your time in Laos. Carol and I were there a couple of weeks after you guys - here's a link to a story in the Herald about Vientiane - let me know your email address and I can shoot you a PDF of an upcoming story in dish magazine about Luang Prabang food. Have another Lao story coming up in Herald soon about Mekong cruising in the south

    Hope all is good with you guys - I'm down in southeast Turkey for Lonely Planet at the moment- a couple more weeks here and then having a quick squiz at Syria and Serbia before updating the Czech Republic again - not home until July 11 so a bit long away from home this trip

    Cheers
