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 [...]

Mellow Melbourne Autumn Stroll

Posted by pesky | May 18, 2008 .

By far the best season in Melbourne is Autumn, in my opinion. Crisp cool mornings, warm sunny days with the light not as harsh and bright as the Summer season. Dina, Quirky and I made another foray along the Yarra River on Thursday, and I managed to sneak a picture of Dina and Quirky as [...]

The week in review.

Posted by Quirky | May 17, 2008 .

Dina & I managed to walk most days in the past week. I trialled a new pair of running shoes especially in light of the change of season. Pesky walked on two occasions but was primarily engaged in work conferences. On Friday as usual he had a gastronomical 3 course lunch including dessert , at which [...]

Peking Duck & Beijing Dumplings

Posted by pesky | May 10, 2008 .

Or should that be Beijing Duck & Dumplings?  What, in any event does this have to do with walking?  Well Dina Quirky and I decided we’d treat ourselves to a Yum Cha after a traumatic week at work, however our favourite Yum Cha restaurant the West Lake, was full and Quirky had neglected to book [...]

Surviving the onslaught

Posted by Quirky | May 3, 2008 .

In an attempt to deflect criticism, Pesky must engage in a collateral attack. He cannot concede that his exercise regime has fallen into serious disarray. I am sure my entries are much more interesting than Pesky’s critique on politics. Last week Pesky begrudgingly walked twice, Dina three times and I walked four. Weather prevented me [...]

Murdering the language

Posted by pesky | May 1, 2008 .

I can’t wait for Dina to get her damned computer.  Don’t know how much more of Quirky’s gawky “Dear Reader” mush I can stand!  If anybody out there is reading this – I am sure you agree!!!  Dina, Quirky and I met up with Hoppy, who is on the mend after a nasty motor bike [...]

The walks continue unabated….with good news at the end.

Posted by Quirky | April 29, 2008 .

I concede it has been sometime since I appraised you of the walks over the last week or thereabouts. Whilst the pressures of work & immediate family issues continue, the walks at lunchtime assume much more importance. Dina, Pesky and I have elderly parents and the walks enable us to compare notes and discuss issues which may [...]

Pesky’s politicism of the Fat C walking Club

Posted by Quirky | April 29, 2008 .

On behalf of all those readers who have emailed me & smsed me I would like to apologise for the way in which Pesky has hijacked this site to express his own personal views about a newspaper columnist Dolt. I agree this site should explore the delights of exercise and Pesky is attempting to use [...]

Sunday Stroll aborted for a Dolt

Posted by pesky | April 23, 2008 .

It was a glorious Sunday morning, and my bush walk beckoned.  However, I decided instead to watch ABC1′s current affairs program Insiders, thinking it would exercise my mind.  What a huge mistake and a monumental waste of time.  Melbourne’s resident Village Idiot Andrew Bolt, whose bilious bilge can be found in the editorial columns of [...]

Dynamic Duo in Planning Mode

Posted by pesky | April 17, 2008 .

Quirky and I did a quick circuit today, whilst Dina went off for a long lunch with “the girls”.  Afterwards I volunteered to make the bookings for the Fat C’s Bruny Island adventure, to take place from 24th to 28th May.  Little did I realize what angst I was letting myself in for, as neither [...]
