BOURNEMOUTH WERE ON TV AGAIN.

Bournemouth were on TV last Saturday against Brighton.

All prepared we were with wine , cheese, and nibbles.

And what a let down. Bournemouth were pathetic., but somehow drew 1-1 with a last minute penalty.

Then the afternoon was spent in warm sunshine with some chablis.

ANOTHER GREAT RECIPE

With the colder weather arriving, we had to bring in all the tomatoes that were still green.

So with a bit of searching on the internet, and a bit of nous from the greatest chef who ever sailed the seven seas, we came up with Curry Ketchup.

It is fabulous.

I really should sell this on Dragons Den, instead of serving it to the dragon here!!!

I'VE GOT MY SPUDS OUT.

Autumn has set in big style, so with the wet weather it was time to get the spuds out of the ground.

Then we realised they had gone mad.

Best part of 35 kilos of perfect potatoes. No holes, bugs, or marks.

They are now stowed in old wax lined dog food bags and should keep us going for 3 months or more.

TOUR DE FRANCE 2011 ?

A very strong rumour locally that the Tour de France is going to play a big part in Brittany next July.

There seems to be a stage planned from Carhaix to Cap Frehel on the 6/7/8 July sort of dates. This might just pass through our village, or if not very very close.

Also the following day will see a stage start from Dinan.

Official announcement is on 19th October

ALL VERY STRANGE

Thanks to new software on our blog, we can track not who, but where in the world people are looking at the blog.

These are the genuine statistics for September 2010 and the totals represent the number of views from each country.

United Kingdom 1,467 United States 166 France 108 Netherlands 32 Russia 32 Germany 19 Moldova 15 Malta 14 Malaysia 13 Ukraine 13

These statistics bother me.

Netherlands can be explained and maybe Germany.

But who the hell is reading the site in Moldova, Malta, Malaysia and Ukraine.

Whoever you are, leave a message and say hello.

The 32 visits from Russia is interesting too.

No matter how much you stalk me, you will never torture the Yorkshire pudding recipe out of me!

HOUSE FOR SALE

The house on the far right in St Cast is available for 1 million euros.

Fabulous views of the sea.

Trouble is, it will be in the sea in a few years as the cliff is eroding fast.

THE ALL NEW BOAT - MARK 3

Tuesday was the first trip out on Mikhail's new boat.

A lovely warm Autumn day and calm seas.

The port of St Cast is still full with boats.

The boat arrives at the pontoon.

In 3 hours fishing, Al caught a cuttlefish, which squirted ink all over the new boat.

Natasha cooked it with an Italian recipe and it was delicious, ink included.

And as usual a few mackerel.

I am pig sick of mackerel this summer so they were boiled up for the dogs.
