Over the years Jamesbondage and Redbreast have found and introduced us to a number of great new venues, and this Sunday's one was another corker. There's lots of country to explore from the cricket ground at West Chermside, and we're bound to return there in future.
The walkers took on a circuit that included a bushy hillside, a creekside wander and some interesting real estate. The runners added a jaunt around the Chermside Hills Reserve. The trail was very well marked, and the runners had only themselves to blame for missing an obvious turn and adding a couple of km to their route....
Walkers en route:
Back at the cricket club, 30-something of us enjoyed some triffic hotpot, followed by a selection of desserts - and birthday cake. Many thanks to our hares! And many thanks to our Winers...and to our Beermeister...and to our photographer Snappy!
The youngest person among us was celebrating his six-month birthday:
And another of our younger members - Miss Behavin' - was celebrating a birthday as well:
She was joined for a down, down by someone who's been walking with us for a while as a nameless person. She has now been awarded a moniker with all due ceremony and will henceforth be know as Skippy. The name references her former employer - and if you weren't there you might like to ask her about the Japanese pronunciation of "Qantas".
