Ive never even heard of poutine.

I love squeaky cheese curds though, we have a local dairy that sells Great cheese curd at our farmers market.

I'll try anything once, give me Augie's portion.

I've had poutine.  It's interesting food.  Sticks to the ribs, filling, and leaves you with a "I could eat a lot more of that" feeling.  Keith, you'd probably like it. 

Here's a couple of links:  (warning.. the wikipedia link has a pictue.

Wow, dinner AND a show!!!

 

I feel my education is now complete - thanks Mark!

[augie]

That picture really did it for me.  I'm going to throw away my one lumberjack shirt and then go undo and retie my boom vangs.  If anybody eats that stuff, give me a call from the emergency room and I'll send you a get well card.

Hi Guys,

 

I dont know about wearing flannel but you guys have it in spade fulls, why dont you chuck in some groundhog, rocky lobsters and a few oysters, with that lot and squeaky cheese curd who needs pizza.

 

I'm feeling ill just thinking about it.

Geesh...he takes one day off from posting and his ship becomes a smorgasbord of food and beverage!

I know sustenance is important, but your log starts to look like a bistro!!!

[popeye the sailor]

I'm waiting for Dagwood to show up.......LOL!

[DSiemens]

You mean like this....

 

[slagoon]

The people at work are looking at me funny because I just started laughing so hard at this last page...well, in Sjors absence perhaps we shall begin the feast?

[themadchemist]

Here is a little update.

 

The gratings are finished and have to go on the deck.

When that is done and I dry fit all the deck furniture I shall make other pictures and then the San Ildefonso is going into dry dock for a while.

I go then back to the Le Mirage.

 

[john46]

Sjors,

 

They are looking nice. A lot of work, these tiny things.

 

Regards,

John

[Sjors]

Thanks John,

 

I thought I was finished , but it turns out that I need two more…...

So I've make them and can placed them this afternoon.

Then a little clear coat and the last picture for this moment at this build.

 

The Mirage is screaming that she wants also attention 

I can not ignore that!

 

[slagoon]

Nice grating. Can you put something in a picture so we can see the scale?

[popeye the sailor]

nice gratings Sjors.  I'll look forward to those pictures.

[cog]

Well done Sjors, very nice your gratings. Do you have something on the side with it ... ?

[Sjors]

Nice grating. Can you put something in a picture so we can see the scale?

[Sjors]

nice gratings Sjors.  I'll look forward to those pictures.

Hi Popeye,

 

For you also the answer to your question,

 

Here it is...

 

All is dry fitted because I need to make the samson post and I still have no lathe.

This will be the last update for a while for the San Ildefonso.

She goes into dry dock and back to the Le Mirage.

 

[Sjors]

that's a 22mm coin right? it is really looking good!!!

That's correct Sarah,

 

You have them at home?

 

[Sjors]

Thanks Carl for dropping in.

 

How is your build going?

 

[slagoon]

No I don't (Wish I did with the decrease in our currency's value)  I found this page...helpful http://www.air-tites.com/coin_size_chart.htm#euro

[Sjors]

I shall give one to your father , so you know how it feels and looks in real 

 

[slagoon]

awww - thanks

[augie]

She looks impresive with all that work done.  Thanks for the shots of the whole ship!

[patrickmil]

Sjors, I'm happy to see you making progress and posting pictures. The gratings look very nice and the overall pictures helps to give us a sense of her size. I'll be checking in on Le Mirage for a bit it seems.

[gjdale]

Looking good Sjors!
