Team Edgy

Whenever Lamme visits Australia, there is always much anticipation. Not only because he is a gorgeous man and a loyal friend, but because I always know that his brief sojourn will be eventful and enjoyable.

Often in the days leading up to his arrival, a Chinese whisper circulates amongst his close Melbourne friends as we begin to plan our next rendez vous. We treasure these times because in recent years we have began a tradition whereby we hike together when Lamme is in town. However the essence of the hike is not purely the beautiful landscape, the miles trekked, or about collective admiration for 'Icebreakers'; but rather about the crazy banter, wild stories and belly laughs which we share throughout the day and which continues into the night over dinner and wine.

Sunday's hike at Mount Macedon with Jo, Bloomers, Pete, Cameron, Hurnard & myself was no exception. Dinner at Hurnard & Nu's was wonderful and the company fantastic... I laughed so much that I had tears in my eyes and developed a cramp in my side.

I'll miss you Lamme and look forward to seeing you, Lorena & Team Edgy in February '09 for a kayak-hike adventure.

Safe travels.
