June/July 2025
Author: Pheasant Tommy
The beginning of this double month saw a veritable cornucopia of activities happen in quick succession.
Starting with the final section of the Camino de Canary, the fabled trio of Adrian, Mario and Tom welcomed along special guest Creeky. The write up of this seminal event can be found here.
This was followed by another favourite pheasant pastime at Cromwell House as the intrepid flock once again attempted to escape from a locked room. Despite dodgy time keeping by the event organisers and some unfortunate shuffling of important documents the team once again managed to triumphantly exit from their containment within the allotted time.
June finished with the Hargrave walk as the team battled the oppressive heat and longer than advertised distance to complete the 6th walk of the year.
July saw more extreme heat events and a trip to the new Ely curry establishment to celebrate pheasant Stu’s birthday. The standard of food received a mixed reception and service was particularly suffering from teething issues.
The seventh month finished with a Long Melford walk, which itself culminated with a most salubrious visit to the Nethergate Brewery for drinks and pizza.
It was during this summer recess that goodbyes were said to the “Rage Rover”, as Creeky’s bane was finally put out of its misery. A minute’s silence was held before the party kicked off and its replacement duly celebrated.
On to August and more heat!
