WALK REPORT: By Lethal Scored 575/598
The walk was quite interesting and reasonably well marked. I had a phone call from the Commonwealth Bank which has been chastened enough to know that their customers are not happy. They found they have a lot of customers just North of Melbourne University, so they are going to hold a brunch at the Melbourne Cemetery to help them keep their fingers on the pulse, even though their customers don’t have one. Trail meandered around a lot, but there was a guy who kept turning up on the trail saying “This way, this way” so that nobody would get lost – except for the stragglers who did not emerge from the park leading to the Moorabbin Football Ground. The rest of us had walked past a car with its windows down and lights on, a bit strange. Yet continued through the car park singing “When The Saints Go Marching In”. We stopped at the street to wait for the others to catch up. After much calling of “On on”, Gargoyle ran back to find that Gerbils had finished unpacking her car, had set up the Drink Stop and the dawdlers and all the Runners were there enjoying punch and chips. Then just a short walk back home.
RUN REPORT: By Klingon Scored 569/598
It’s the first time we have been here and that’s a good point. Secondly, there’s a very good bar next door and that’s also a good point. We set off through the station and across the highway. Trail led around several streets around an oval and through a park and then we got to the only hill which was a bridge over Nepean Highway with a HH in the middle. Then there were more streets, another park and eventually we got to the St Kilda FC training ground where there was a good Drink Stop. From there it was on home.
