Men's Breakfast celebrates 10 years

🎵 ‘Oh we love to have brekky with Stewie...’ 🎵


A unique cover of the famous Slim Dusty song ‘Duncan’ echoes around the rooms of the Kensington Baseball Club at Newland Park in Erindale.

About 40 fellas have squeezed into the clubrooms this morning for the celebration of 10 years of the Men’s Breakfast – a massive cream-covered cake sits in the corner, waiting to be eaten (keep in mind it is not even 9 am yet). Coffee, tea and a sausage and egg meal have already been consumed, lifting the spirits of the early risers.

An initiative of the City of Burnside as part of the Burnside Home Support Program and with My Aged Care, the Men’s Breakfast has now come together every Monday morning for 10 years to provide mateship, social interaction and general life support to one another.

The laughter and jeering with every song or (inappropriate) joke told can be heard from outside the clubrooms, and the atmosphere felt even further.

As a viewer, it’s hard not to get caught up in the joy and find yourself smiling at nothing and everything all at once.

A member of the Men’s Breakfast since day one, Burnside resident Graeme said the group dynamic always rang with positivity and was a great social outlet for so many in the area.

Having formed a cycling group with guys he met during the breakfast, Graeme is one of many who has made friends for life at these weekly get togethers.
