Pirate Pat
Wow! what a great time we had with our Bruny Island members last
Saturday. Our hostesses for the day
Sultana de Bruni
Pat , Dame Grace of Bruni Jeanette, The Grand Baronessa Linda de Bruny joined us at Mermaids Café, where some of us had pancakes and
berries, while others settled for a coffee and fudge for
their “dessert first breakfast”. Pat changed her
persona to
Pirate Pat as we boarded “The Good Ship Lollipop” for the
ferry trip to Bruny. Onto Barnes Bay CWA Hall which was
originally the Old School and we were officially greeted
with a welcoming smile by
The Grand Baronessa Linda de Bruny.

As we waited for
Pirate Pat and Dame Grace of Bruni
Jeanette, to take on yet another persona – “The Chefs Italiano” –
some imbibed in the red- Lambrusca and listened to
Italian music. The meal was served and all would have to say
the girls did a great job with the menu. During lunch,
Madam May Bloom asked Pirate Pat to draw the lucky door prize, which was won by,
guess who? None other than
Pirate Pat, it was a popular win, just a small reward for a great effort.
The music changed to some 50’s & 60’s tunes, so those who
could not fit in the kitchen worked off some of their lunch
by having a bit of bop around the dance floor. The washing
up and packing up started and some of the ladies to the
opportunity, to check out the new poodle puppies, belonging
to
The Grand Baronessa Linda de Bruny
and the spa that Lady
Lin L'Amour had for sale and also to have a little look at some of the
island. For
Goddess Barbara and
Lady Laughalot Lyn it was a nostalgic trip, as both lived on the Island in the
past.

We then ventured further north to Dennes Point and all met at
the lovely home of
Dame Grace of Bruni
Jeanette, where the entrée was served. Included on the platters was some
very nice home made cheese which Pat supplied. It was lovely
to have two new ladies,
Joanne
from Bruny and
Debbie
from Seven Mile Beach, with us for the day, they will
hopefully join us as members in the future. Debbie and Pat
met at their Cheese making course. A great day and we
look forward to the next down under, down under, down under
day. Again a big thank you to the Island girls.
