Top o’ the World!

A View from Mt Painter towards Civic

A View from Mt Painter towards Civic

Last night I went for a walk that I have been promising myself for ages, and realistically I really need to be doing every second day at least.  I have been putting it off for ages, saying to my housemate that I’ll get around to it…  and never really getting around to it until I finally did it last night.

Stupidly I thought that the quickest way up a mountain was straight up the side…  I learnt the hard way that they put longer windy paths to the top of these things for a reason.  I believe this walk took me about an hour longer than it needed to as extremely unfit little me had to stop many times on the way up the mountain to catch my breath and weeze for a bit…  The view from the top was worthwhile though.

I may have to concider doing more of these walks, as since I left my last job I have put on further weight, and have rarely done the walks that I was enjoying in Sydney and after hours at the other job.

Border War XI.

.

I’m really looking forward to Border War XI, this will be my 3rd Border War in a row, and whilst it’s not a big war it’s ful of wonderful people and is loads of fun to attend.

My first border war was when I was still fighting, and I got to experience my first Combat Archery Tournament which was done on the cricket pitch in the middle of the oval.  It was great and i have been hoping to see more of it, but have always been elsewhere when it has been hosted.  Border war does remind me each year about how slack a consort I am, as apart from Festival it is usually the only time I get to catch up with Lady Elizabeth De Bohan, someone who whilst attempting to inspire me to fight, really just inspires me to peace, tranquility and friendship. ;)

My first Border War was where I was also introduced to that wicked stuff call Bearbait, which not only baits the bear, but brings it chrashing down in a heap of hangover induced inactivity.

This year i don’t have a 9-10 hour trip to get down there, so I’m really looking forward to it.  Are you?
