the Poona Camping Women’s Association

Last week the Cooker clan headed to Poona for our annual visit.  It’s no accident that our visit coincided with the annual general meeting of the Poona CWA (Camping Women’s Association).  There was a lot of sitting and talking: a productive meeting by any committee’s standards.

The meeting was called to order at morning tea time.  Absentees were noted.  There was no agenda.

Someone moved that Kerrie (my sister-wife’s actual sister) make proper coffees with her fancy machine.  The motion was carried unanimously.

I haven’t had a soy latte in a hundred years.  It was good.

Marita was nominated as chief manicurist for the year.  Her dance card was filled swiftly.

Other business included scones, advanced heath directives, loom knitting, crabs, shoes, the scarcity of wool as skeins, sunscreen, cancer and prevailing weather conditions.

74 year old Audrey rounded out proceedings with a discussion of the benefits of yoga and a demonstration of her downward dog technique.

The AGM of the Poona CWA was adjourned at lunchtime. The association then disbanded until next year.  Poona sand crabRefreshments were served.

Minutes taken and submitted for approval by Amanda, secretary for the Poona CWA (self-appointed).

are you a camper?

    There’s some fancy pants camping going on there – I like it. Looking forward to taking over Lake Ainsworth’s camping spot with most of Isaac’s school come the G20 holiday. Must remember to take manicure supplies! PS, only just noticed that CHS is on your blog roll – thank you so much.

    Manicures, coffee machines and yog-ah, that all sounds very fancy. I think the PCWA will have to be rebranded/upgraded to the PGWA, (Poona Glamping Womens Association.) Who knows what heights of luxury will be reached next year? Marvellous minute taking, by the way!
