Iron and Toer

Yiong has learnt from a Mr Zimmer that the iron I bought was a child's iron made in Westphalia in 1880 Mr Zimmer says more interesting things can be see at www.saareisen.de but I could not get to the english edition at saareisen.de/index.eng.htm

and she tells me that Toer has another story, Girl from the Coast, about his grandmother which i must get to read

Last night tried a new place which is one of a chain selling pizza opposite our petrol station and a few doors away from the German pub and thus conveniently near. The Margherita had a overwhelming tomato flavour but the base was not too bad but did not compare favourably with the wood burnt one at Northam Beach Cafe. The coffee though was surprisingly hot and their self made tiramisu was excellent. The very pleasant woman told us ( I am not sure if she is a partner or employee) said they make their own mushroom soup and we promised to give it s try one day. They also made English apple pie, very tempting , but they were "out of stock"

Why am I writing all this? Because we are having a rest, recovering from dinners and lunches with visitors who are thinning out afer cheng beng.
