Pink Weds on Hamilton Island!!!

Posted by pesky | June 29, 2009 .

The heading requires some explanation. Your intrepid FatC’er Pesky made a solo trip to Hamilton Island in Australia’s beautiful Whitsunday Islands in mid June 2009. I was fortunate to enjoy the hospitality of family and friends there for a week, thus escaping Melbourne’s rather chilly winter for a short while.
Almost upon arrival, I [...]

Tasmania Tantalizes

Posted by pesky | June 26, 2009 .

The “Apple Isle” again lured the FatCWalking club to its attractions, with the intrepid trio staying once again at Bruny Island, and in Hobart. On Bruny we took an “Eco Tour” boat trip around the southern coast of the Island to “The Friars” – an outcrop of rocks south of Bruny on which live [...]

Diva Dina’s Declaratory Claptrap

Posted by pesky | April 15, 2009 .

Well, I could have said “drivel” for alliterative completeness, but somehow “claptrap” seems better!  Here is a pic of Dina and Pesky at the Observatory Hotel in Sydney last December with the two most famous Iron Chefs (Iron Chef Chinese Chen Kenichi and Iron Chef French Hiroyuki Sakai).  Both are thorough gentlemen, complete “hams” and [...]

YOO HOO WHERE ARE YOU?

Posted by dina | April 6, 2009 .

Well, hasn’t this been a real lull in reporting the proceedings!  The hot weather has come and gone, but nevertheless, Quirky and I, being committed and stalwart, have been trekking our laps around the Yarra.  Pardon me this encomium, but Quirky and I have walked many kilometres enjoying the serenity and gentle breezes with nary [...]

Churchill & Lady Churchill conquer all before them!!

Posted by Quirky | January 12, 2009 .

Congratulations to Churchill & Lady Churchill on the birth of bouncing Clemmy Churchill. Mother and father doing well, although we wish to dispel any rumours that the cigar smoke exhaled by Churchill has increased Victoria’s greenhouse gases!
Come to think of it Pesky’s excessive verbosity may have added to the increase of Victoria’s greenhouse gases!
We look forward to [...]

Greetings to all FatC Walking Club readers.
I survived the New Year Celebrations and I now extend New Year Greetings to all our loyal readers.

Well dear reader it has come to the end of another year and on behalf of all of those from the Fat C Walking Club, I wish you a Happy New Year for 2009. In the last few weeks Pesky has been sunning himself in beautiful Tasmania and has found new friends at the beach [...]

Posted by pesky | December 7, 2008 .

For three special evenings these two icons of the cult hit “Iron Chef” Japanese TV series from the mid 1990’s were in Australia to dazzle their adoring fans with a spectacular display of their culinary skills. The Observatory Hotel in Kent Street Sydney was the venue for this gastronomic extravaganza, which almost has the [...]

Quirky Forgets His Pills! – IRON CHEFS ARE COMING!!!

Posted by pesky | December 5, 2008 .

Well, its the only explanation I can come up with for his latest offering. I don’t know if everyone else was as mystified as me about Quirky’s babblings on mini lettuce leafs etc? In any case, I HAVE BIG NEWS! On behalf of the FCWC, Dina and I are visiting Sydney’s Observatory [...]

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 [...]
