Christmas News from SW Australia.
End of year Celebration and Coupe D'Antibes
Well, sadly le
père Noël didn't make it to our annual
gathering, but certainly many others did, including two rather protective
hooded plovers who were dive-bombing
our pétanque players playing
between the road and the archery alleys. The plovers chose to nest right on the
edge of our designated pétanque "pistes" marked out the day before by Kerry, who
protested "The nest wasn't
there yesterday!"
Forty seven members and friends, some from as
far south as Eden and as far north as Bermagui gathered under the trees at
Mandeni to sip cassis and champagne before the first round of pétanque was tackled. We needed courage for those pesky
plovers! Then picnic tables and chairs were added to those already there and
the French themed bunting was hung from trees.
