Pesky’s mini lettuce leaf…

Posted by Quirky | November 30, 2008 .

After much cajoling Pesky decided to walk with Dina and I last Friday. As usual Dina and I  waited for him to arrive after devouring his pre lunch lunch consisting of a mini lettuce leaf;a mini home grown Roma tomato and mini can of tuna in brine. Unfortunately mini is not usually a word one would associate with Pesky but he seems to thrive on its use in the hope it will stick to him in an adjectival sense.

Speaking of size reduction our patron was heard to describe Dina and I as having failed in our task. There is an old Cantonese proverb that glass houses often shatter when least expected.

This week I leave for Queensland to inform our northern neighbours of the worthwhile pursuit of the joys of the walking club. I will provide reports of the trip when I return.

In the meantime I shall miss the delights of “Kenny’s’ lunch bars dotted throughout central Melbourne. They provide healthy and nutritious lunchtime sandwiches and salad rolls. Unlike Pesky’s dietary intake the rolls are so satisfying it is unnecessary for Dina and I to consume the mini steel tuna container to satisfy our hunger as it seems must “mini” Pesky to satiate his immense appetite!
