Food, Glorious Food.
Saturday pm. Scillonian Club, St. Marys. It is evident from Day 1 that this Hoot Toots XV likes food. Whilst Fat Nige, Undies, Jimbo and Tucks cope well with standard helpings, Jake orders a pizza the size of a tractor wheel and Gazza revels in the fact that his bangers and mash with onion gravy contains no less than five meaty sausages. Bubbles orders soup followed by a double beefburger. Prompted by a mark on the underside Tango suggests that his soup bowl has been washed in the urinals. Bubbles is not put off and slurps through the contents and two large slices of bread, then scoffs his burgers before the waiter has dropped the plate. Tango leaves his cheesy chips that are swooped upon by the gannets. Bryher
Thursday - We tackle Bryher as a group for the first time. On the ferry boat Pente opts to look slim by sitting between Undies and Fat Nige and despite Bubbles easily being convinced that we are about to row the engine starts and we are on our way. The tide is very low and our approach to the island is via a route that can fairly be described as the back passage. Close to the island the ferry stops, and we are herded into a motorised rubber dingy and taken to shore, paddling the last 20 meters to the beach. No idea where we are or where to go, we ramble aimlessly until stumbling upon the Fraggle Rock Cafe where we stop for a beer. In the courtyard we take the opportunity to dangle Bubbles by his underpants on a hook designed to hold a hanging basket. Ouch! Bubbles now sings Castrati. Gavin The Ghost
A ghost makes his haunting presentiment on this tour. Jim brings him alive during a senile moment when he calls Gavin to the dock having listed fines for this unknown tour member. Jim is encouraged to read out Gavin's fines to an empty (fines court) chair. (Tour Guide 2008 explanation of a Gavin) Gav’in – (Gaa vin) n. (US Gavinn). 1 a ghost or spectre. 2 a haunting presentiment or apparition. 3 a figment of Jimbo’s imagination during a senile moment. [French Gavine or Latin Gavinus] Not to be confused with Phil Spectre the late American record producer songwriter whose fame reached its height in the early 1960s. |
