Strike revisited

My hands are getting worse especially where bowling is concerned. Nevertheless managed to get over a score of 100 with some spares and strikes along the way. It's a good party venue but I'm not sure about the mighty Quinn crawling between the bowling balls.

Laura got lessons from Fred Flintstone

The Black Box

This is the $6 book I got when the Hall St bookshop was closing down. A 400 page fast read through a 20 yar old cold case, although the detective who solved it was actually at the scene 20 yar earlier. Michael Connelly has churned out plenty of books including The Lincoln Lawyer. This was made into a film in 2011.  At Clunes last week, the Lincoln Lawyer was available in our room and we hadn't seen it. I put the DVD in the slot but I could not get it to play. I wiped it, I cleaned it but it would not play.  DOOHH.

Quinn the Eskimo

Started off quiet enough with one visitor Caroline Kennedy.  She wanted to take a photo of our shriveled toadie stools. "No problem" I said. "By the way do you want a hat?" she said, "for the Mickey Mouse".  "OK" I said. "I'll drop it around with the photos of the toadies." she said. Then the long lost relos from Darwin dropped in being Brian, Jennifer and Marie not forgetting they had Pam in tow. Laura came after that looking for a needle in a hay stack and then Elyce arrived with   Cowhen, Lincoln and Quinn.

Air PnP

Yes air poo and lots of it.  We had a strafing run last week. We have a white house, recently painted, a white car, a white fence. None of these go with the black bombardment we have had. If you stand back you can admire the pattern of splatter and see the direction and angle that it has been delivered. I have just now cleaned off a second lot from a different direction.  It has to be a large flock but how do they co-ordinate all shitting at the same time?

Post Office Hotel

Don't bring your letters to post but you can bring an appetite. We were in the cosy nook fire place lounge but the noisy 90 yar olds were locked in the cage room across the hall. Then the ambulance came and took one of them away but they still had cake.  We had our own birthday girl who is now resplendent in her winter down jacket thanks to all the Clancy's.

Inside warm

Outside warm

Winter cards

The 500 card game may not be as frequent but the mid winter version down at the van is still an annual feature.  Facilities have been upgraded with the use of a toilet etc but who needs one of those really. Unless you are getting a bit older and running two hundred metres because you are busting is not as funny as it used to be.  Attention is also waning when there is a break of an hour or so to watch bushwalking movies from 20 yar ago.

Clunes Book Town

The rain has gone away so we could get out and about to have a look. Esmond Park is where gold was first discovered in Victoria.  There are still many relics left from those days and much money was spent on buildings including the Queen's Fountain.  Also the bottle museum is worth a look if you have ancestors into glass making.
