In the town of Brockley lived a man called Dunwoody. Much like Madonna, Pele, Aston from JLS and other talented individuals he only had one name. His talent: Exploration. Despite all his fame and fortune Dunwoody did not live in a mansion or in one of the big houses on Manor Avenue or Wickham Road. Instead he opted to live alone, in his modest mobile home. No not a caravan, the home that travelled with him where ever he went; his trusty yurt.
One day Dunwoody waved goodbye to the town of Brockley promising to return with tantalising tales and peculiar produce from his most ambitious adventure yet. “I will see all of you on the 4th of June” he merrily bellowed, as he disappeared down Brockley Road and into the distance. The date was duly noted down in diaries, calendars and margins of newspapers from Endwell Road to Adelaide Avenue and on to Tressilian Crescent. June 4th came around with speed. Celebrations were planned, cakes baked and bunting hung but Dunwoody’s Yurt never appeared in the park that was both Hilly and Fieldy. There were no stories of adventure from lands far beyond Peckham, Dulwich or Forest laden Hills. With no stories to feed their insatiable curiosities, the imagination of the town turned to the whereabouts of their missing explorer. And so, The Legend of Dunwoody was born. Some muse he found love. Some concocted that he became a TV chief. Some even wonder if a grizzly end befell our intrepid explorer.
This year explorers are being called to the streets of Brockley and Crofton Park for Brockley International Explorer Day to celebrate Dunwoody’s life’s work, some hope that this will be the 4th of June that he returns, whilst others are here for a jolly good time. From May 30th explorers can descend on the town searching for evidence of Dunwoody’s legacy and artefacts from his illustrious career. On June 4th Desmond Keats, Archie Fawkes and I, Penny Britanica, will be holding special events in honour of our dear friend Dunwoody. Join us in keeping the Legend alive by becoming an explorer and having you own adventures. Explorers are then called to gather in Hilly Fields at 4pm where Brockley’s Explorer Extraordinaire will be announced and unveiled to the masses.
