Bruny Beckons

Posted by pesky | May 29, 2008 .

What a trip! Dina, Churchill, Quirky and I have just returned from a magnificent walking trip on Bruny Island. This is the first installment of our report. Dina is still waiting to get her computer operating fully so she can commence contributions – she should be ready by next week. Quirky is champing at the bit to add his two bob, and Churchill is no doubt nursing some resentment at our frenetic pace – despite his superior fitness he was struggling to keep up with the rest of us, particularly when we voraciously consumed the bottle of Ardbeg 1990 vintage single Islay malt so generously supplied by Dina. (oops, I don’t think I should have mentioned that!). Fortunately for Dina & me, Quirky, despite his extra kms of blood vessels, can’t tolerate spirits – all the more for us. As for Churchill, we discovered that unlike his namesake, his liking for a tipple isn’t matched by his capacity for it.

Apparently our fame is spreading. Rumour has it that Pavarotti has been singing like a (very large) canary & has blabbed (or maybe blubbered) the website address to all and sundry…..

Stay tuned for more exciting reports on Bruny. Hopefully Quirky, Churchill and Dina will get off their considerable backsides & make some contributions! I will close with this pic snapped on South Bruny – the local denizen & the FCWC clearly have something in common!
