Every 3rd sunday of the Month on Flinders Island the Furneaux Field Game Gun Club hold their club shoots. With a good range including down the line, skeet, tower, Simulated there is plenty to test your skills. Sunday’s club had a good turn out even the with the cold windy weather, scores were slightly lower than normal with Justin only managing a 14 out of 25 in the first round of Simulated. Mitchell and Rowena went out to watch and to enjoy the nice ham and cheese toated sandwiches the canteen ladies make. A BBQ lunch is available with lamb chops, sausages, patties served up with bread and sauce, good food to keep the hungry Shooters going for the afternnon. We had the leave early as Mitchell was getting tired so missed afternoon tea which would be the highlight, homemade scones, cakes, picklets all cooked by the local ladies. With Hot drinks just a $1.00 and sandwichs $2.50 it is well worth the drive just for Lunch.

Gun Club on Flinders Island
Thursday, July 22nd, 2010Islanders Party on Flinders Island
Sunday, June 20th, 2010What a weekend, Saturday morning kicked off with Junior Football at the Flinders Island Recreation Ground the green team victorious over the red team. Then it was off to Emita for the 50th Birthday Party of local Big Bob, a shearer and all round good bloke. There was food a plenty and good company with many of the local islanders turning out to wish him happy birthday. Sunday another party, a surprise baby shower for Kelly. After a few dramas getting her to the Interstate Hotel where all the girls were patiently waiting, she arrived speechless. It was a fun afternoon, party games and delicous homemade cakes, muffins and lots of other treats. There was a very interesting baby quiz with questions like what was the last baby to be born in the Flinders Island Multi Purpose Centre (hospital)? and  how many children can the duck pond (local child care centre) look after at any one time? and more challenging ones like how many years does it take for a disposable nappy to decompose? 300, 400 or 500 years. The answer 500 unbelievable!
