Kalding ken kangaroo


by Vic A
(as published in MVP 5 years ago)


When I learned unexpectedly that there is a group of Magsingalenos here in Sydney, I felt so excited that I wanted to meet up with them straight away.  Ronnie Tolentino and myself have been planning to get together with our respective families since the time he came out of the woodwork, but it just hasn’t happened yet.  Now that we discovered this bigger group of kailians, most of whom have been living in Sydney for a few decades now, it gave us a stronger reason to make this planned meet-up happen sooner than later.

Pinapaitan nga kalding

Leading up to this get-together that happened yesterday, Manong Bart Concepcion (from Quimmalapao, Manzante and San Basilio) and myself have been constant phone mates, as well as Ronnie.  Manong Bart heightened our excitement when he said that Manong Chito Baldoria (from San Basilio) and himself will be going to his hunting ground to get some feral goats and if they get lucky, some kangaroos as well.  The thought of kilawen and papaitan is enough to get us excited like children.

True enough, the weekend before this event, Manong Bart, Manong Chito and other friends of theirs went out hunting for our pulutan.  Manong Bart has this property, 3 hours away from Sydney, where there’s an abundance of wild goats, kangaroo, and he says, even wild boar sometimes.  His property has a shed which serves as their accommodation when they’re out there.  Didiay da nga pugpugan ken partien diay maala dan.  No iyawid da ket narangrangkayen.  He has invited all of us to join them in their next hunting expedition so we can try the fresh kalabkab ken primera ti kappukan nga kalding.  I must admit, it sounds like a real fun experience and we will definitely take him up on his offer one of these days.  To William (Realon), I know you were asking earlier if there were any hunting opportunities here – well, I am sure Manong Bart will gladly bring you to his favourite spot if you visit Sydney.
