Sunday on the River – 21st Feb 10

El Presidente' being a little "Laid Back"

Sundays SHOULD be lazy, laid back and above all else, enjoyed. The Coowonga Folk Club also reckon this should be so and for at least one hot Sunday afternoon in February we were all there to enjoy the day.

There was no shortage of excellent musicians willing to help out as there were plenty of visitors who hunkered down to the serious task of thirst quenching. It was definitely thirsty weather as anyone of the hundred or so visitors would readily agree.

Plenty of drinks and good music! What more could you possibly wish for, aside perhaps for an excellent gourmet hamburger. I found out recently this description  can be applied if you serve the burger “open” style. Thanks to the tireless efforts of the Boat club kitchen staff, everyone was well fed. By the way guys, I have a couple of suggestions for your hot dogs next time. I know

"Gourmet" Burger

"Gourmet" Burger

tomato and mustard is the go, but you really need some chilli beans to make it more memorable. Nothing too hot (of course)

Anyone who did not manage to get to the event should be absolutely kicking themselves for missing out. One should race over to the calendar device right now and scratch on a hasty note for Bobfest.

Congratulations to the performers and everyone who turned up to make this a great day out in Rockhampton.

We are looking forward to the next event like this.

By the way, all youse’ who have admitted to me that they headed up to the club above the barrage, this is not where we had the party. Give yourselves a slap and remind your self where the Fitzroy Motor Boat clubhouse is. It is across the road from Quay Street and South Street intersection. For those of you who have GPS devices AND know how to use them, try the following co-ordinates. 23°23’3.25″S – 150°31’8.95″E
