Waiting for the Big One

Easter Monday is back and Slush Puppie and Ice Queen resurected the once popular location in Heiligenkreuz for a sort of rerun from the last time (was that last year or already two years ago?) without Mary Vetseras tomb this time, but lots of fresh Bärlauch and lots of rain and fresh air.

Easter Eggs were hidden at most checks but of course the real treasure box was that glorious bottle of egg liquor that was hidden at that raised stand for hunters and that quenched many a thirst. Sperminator and The Famous Pimpsqueak as well as the delectable Scarlett Pimpernell. Since there were no kids around this time there was all chance to grab those Easter Eggs by the whole lot, alas, I lost interest after the second check and apart from a chosen few who carried some eggs those must have been consumed during the run already.
The circle was a bit shortish as it was a bit nippy outside (I mentioned the rain and cold) and so it was left to the Restaurant inside the Stift Heiligenkreuz (and the occasional priest seeking shelter with the odd anonymous female at some corner table inside) to cheer everyone up and at least Richard Kopf confided to me that he hasn't seen Sex Energy "in such a joyful and talkative mood since 1962".
If that isn't something than I don't know what is! By the way, I am very happy to see Shiraz back and running with us.


Here's to the Beatles, 40 years later!
