Six years on exactly....

Same place, same day, same boots, same coat, same me.

Seeing Triple after a beer at Gramma's

We were at the "Appy Hour" down at Gramma's on Wednesday 17th February, when the three Royal Canadian Navy training ships moored up at the new GLHA dock. Apparently they were in the area performing officer training and stayed the night (what sort of training is that?) anyway, it was fantastic to see them come in, one by one, and moor next to each other as we scoffed ourselves silly.

Sunday Lunch

It has been consumed and the judging panel have decided that the MK I meat pie works very well.

Gibsons Pie Watch

A lazy Sunday (well, they're all lazy days actually) with a few household baking jobs on the go, a molasses loaf, two meat pies and a couple of mincemeat turnovers from the leftover whole wheat pastry.

The meat pie filling consists of finely chopped inside round steak, onions, some potatoes and carrots and a rich homemade gravy. This is the MK I version of the meat pie and we have high hopes for it.

The pies will be eaten soon, we will be pairing them with some home made baked beans and we will be counting our fingers afterwards to check they're all there.

Launched

Down at the launch ramp where we have spent many a happy hour, the boat makes everything look small.

Coastal Craft

The latest sixty-five foot Coastal Craft Concord turning the corner from Venture Way onto the Highway last night on it's trip down to the Marina. Blackfish pub in the background.
