The Good Ol’ Boys


Peter and Errol, his old mate of more than 40 years, caught up while we were in Hervey Bay. We happily accepted Errol’s offer to show us around town. I should have realized that Peter’s old pal wasn’t likely to take us to see the whale statue, the cast iron miniature of the sailing ship the Ariadne, or the leaping wire dolphin set upon a base of mosaic tiles. A tour of his town was actually a glimpse into investment opportunities that seem to abound in the region. Later in the day we were fed, watered and entertained at Chez Doyle. I was delighted to learn that Errol’s wife Robyn and I share an interest in genealogy.
