We did, finally, thanks - after losing out on the other one we wanted just as we were booking it. It's not my first choice (or second or third) but it will do.

It's loverlee up there though. Put yer woolies on and sit round the firepit. We stayed in Lions Head many years ago and did just that.

Yes, we've revised our plans of paddling, my sister out in the canoe and sitting on the balcony sipping wine looking at the sunset. Now it's thermals, blankets and 'camping coffee' (coffee with spirits) instead!

The place we are renting is at Eagle Harbour a bit further North and on the West side..

It would have been tricky getting the canoe on the balcony anyway.

The sunsets are lovely, we went to some beach or other to watch one. Was it The Singing Sands? I know we went there too, I didn't hear much singing but you'll know why.

Charlee got stung by a wasp and stinger is stuck in her lip inside her mouth.

Now she is with wife on the way to the e-vet in a taxi as she appears to be having an allergic reaction.

Dogs are like kids, they can never have issues during normal veterinarian business hours.

The guy's a genius, even if he can't make up his mind where he sits, politically. :lol:
Have you seen who he swapped his wife for. :ohmy:

I never see the Sunday strips on Sundays as we don't have Sunday papers here, so I check the website occasionally.

Well not, doctor was I meant, dogs and kids never seem to get hurt when the doctor is in, requiring an emergency doctor or urgent care doctor.

Good today. Some allergy medication and the removal of the stinger from her cheek fixed her up.

Good. A wasp sting left the face of my friend's Boxer paralyzed down one side.

Of all the things your told on the ramp about the aircraft, the worst are the words air start. It's a relatively simply procedure, but most on the ramp agree it's not their favorite thing to do.
