Fresh claim, another faux pas show that vice-regal decision to resign was right one!

'HE BORED ME ALL NIGHT

Abuse victim's shocking new claims!

'He pulled it out of his trousers and pointed it at me. It was long and thin with an ugly bulbous thing on the end.''

He bored me all night long. I was starting to despair as to when it would come to an end.'

A former church worker and retired nurse has come forward with sensational new claims of a horror night spent with former Governor-General Peter Hollingworth when he was a young clergyman in Victoria.
The woman, who asked not to be named, claimed the night's events, repressed in her memory for decades, had only been unlocked recently after lengthy sessions with a tarot-card reader she consulted over insomnia.
In an affadavit provided to The Bug, the woman from Bacchus Marsh just outside the Victorian capital said she was undertaking voluntary work in the kitchen of a church camp attended by Hollingworth in the early 60s.
She claimed she now had total recall of having what she thought was a friendly late-night discussion with the tall, handsome minister in the camp's huge dining tent when "events suddenly turned for the worst".
"He had just asked me how I thought the camp was going and whether the kids were enjoying themselves when he casually pulled it out of his trouser pocket," she said in her affidavit.
"It was long and thin and I still remember vividly that it had this big bulbous end on it.
"I was absolutely shocked because no-one had warned me he was a pipe smoker. I immediately looked around for some form of support or a way of escape, as you do, but like all pipe smokers, he had cunningly positioned himself so that I couldn't get away.
"Before I knew what was happening, he had stuffed some evil-smelling tobacco in the pipe, stoked it repeatedly and lit up."
The woman claimed that over the next three hours, Hollingworth repeatedly:
o pointed the pipe stem at her
o glanced continuously at the tent's ceiling when reflecting on a point he had just made
o constantly stoked new tobacco into the pipe while looking over the pipe bowl at her with his head slightly tilted as if expecting an answer to whatever he was saying.
The woman said she still found it hard to believe the abuse she suffered over the following hours.
"Hollingworth told me that he was thinking of putting out a vinyl 12-inch record of some of his finest sermons of the past year, and asked if I wanted to hear some of them.
"I was just about to say 'no, it's getting late', when he started up. They were horribly pretentious sermons full of silly allegories and metaphors and they were all rather self-centred.
"He ended up boring me all night! I was starting to despair as to when it would come to an end.
"The pity of it all was that he was rather handsome and athletic back then.
"I was a bit of a tomboy with short hair and pretty strong urges and I remember wishing he had been a Catholic priest. At least then I might have got a root."
