Thank you everyone for the library-themed cake and tea! Based on the birthday I had, the tea is a London Fog and the cake is an Apple-Studded Brown Butter Streusel Coffee Cake. With cinnamon-maple ice cream on the side.

Everybody have a slice!
Oh wow! When will you have another birthday please, April - I could do with some of that cake every week. Clearly will have to do some remedial work on the tea since London Fog is not so good with milk or lemon

Why did you have to change classrooms, Johnney?
A Moose broke the window, Mummy.
Now Johnney, what have I told you about making up stories .....

At the start of this phase of Old Weather Whaling Helen J was one of a few our merry band who kindly offered to take on a whaler, and settled on the Fleetwing. I believe that the keeper being the Captain's daughter was an attraction to Helen who supported people in her life as a Franciscan nun and felt a connection with Adeline.
I have written a short report about Adeline Heppingstone, and her whaling voyage, as a 'Thank You' to Helen.

Thank you for posting that, Joan. Very interesting to read.
And thank you, Helen, for doing the voyage and all the research. You will not be forgotten.

Enjoying the odd glimpse at one of the Shetland webcams. And suddenly there's a chap setting the main square up for Christmas.

The GPS is a wonderful thing...
A friend is coming to visit and she entered my street. It took her to the street she entered.
We don't know where she is, but after she entered the name of a nearby restaurant, the GPS said she should be here in 15 minutes.

And all of you make the list of things I am thankful for this year. Both what you do for climate and history and the "fellowship" OW fosters. Thank you all.
