Entertainment
Crypto-mansion to Breakers
From 3:30pm to 5:30, Vince will lead a bush bash to the beach.
Wear long trousers ("pants" to the Americans...) and good shoes.
Machetes indicated.
Much fun had in avoiding the mad bull, escaping the blood-sucking
vampires in the secret cave, slipping throught the forest of
cacti, scaling the cliffs, running from the angry hornets,
crossing the swamp, avoiding the quicksand, and swimming in
the sea, all whilst being back for
supper.
Music
Bankie Banx from the Dune Preserve
will play a set from 1900 to 2030.
Art Exhibition
Art Exhibition by Jo-Anne Mason of
Seven Days on Anguilla
fame.
Sport
Bandminton and possibly Croquet?
Rum
Users of e-gold drink gold rum from Anguilla Rums.
There are three labels:
- Pistols are a sharper rum (375ml), ideal for the
beginning crypto-hacker.
- Planter's Gold is the old standby (750ml).
Preferred by reputable digital cash architects around the world.
- Cask 23 is the ultimate rum (750ml). The '23 is
the discrete choice of senior financial project directors.
There will be a liberal supply of this available for
purchase, and we should be able to sacrifice a bottle
for tasting purposes.
Location
From the InterIsland
From the InterIsland, coming out under their arch, turn left.
Follow the road past Short Curve (a quick left then right)
and to the circle. At the circle, take the right exit
(the left takes you down to Sandy Ground).
Go downhill then uphill to traffic lights
(that are not currently working),
and turn left at these traffic lights.
Travel about 200m up the rise, and you'll find the large lawn,
with big white house set back. Drive through the gates
onto the lawn and park down the bottom, close to the fence.
On the Map
Look at F8 on the
map,
and identify the 3 short tracks
going up to the Governor's Residence.
Take the track in the middle, at the traffic lights.
The house is located
about 200 metres up that track, on the right hand side.
Look for the *large* lawn, with big white house set back.
Turn right into garden, parking down below.
If you reach the Governor's Residence, you've gone too far.
Take the short track on the right. The house is located
at the end of that track (adjacent to the centre track).
To get to our places,
you go right onto an unmarked dirt track, from the end of the right track.
Travel 100m and then left 50m, and you are there.
