Brother Lee Love
23 May 2007
The retreat was positively gorgeous. Relaxation, hilarity and plenty of bitchin and stitchin. And no washing up.
My favourite bit was our bushwalk. The four of us - Donni, Sharon, Zena (with a belly full of arms and legs) and I went for a walk through the rainforest to check out the bush chapel. It's so beautiful, the pews are the only man made thing, the walls and altar and everything else are all natural. It's a bit druidy actually, but really gorgeous.
I got behind the altar and did jazz hands singing 'brother lee love' at the bush chapel. Do you remember the Kenny Everett sketch where his hands just kept getting bigger and bigger? Too funny, and such a blast from the past - pitched right at our age group. Zena is probably too young to remember, but she smiled politely anyway.
Brother Brother Brother Lee Love - (repeat whilst jazz hands get bigger and bigger)
'It's gonna be AWWWWL RIGHHHHHHT!'
Anyhow, camp was awesome. Donni makes the best gluwein on the planet, and I don't want to know how much full fat milk was in the porridge - it doesn't get that creamy from water alone. Incredibly yum.
You coming next year?
The cooks having morning tea (they were lashed and sent back to work moments after this shot was taken)
There were so many gathered in the name of knitting, I hoped a miracle might have ensued.
