    It was the "Toad in the Hole" Pub, which gets its name from their well-known meal...the Toad-in-the-hole...

    This is usually just sausages cooked in a Yorkshire Pudding. The Toad instead cooks a sausage ring into a huge Yorkshire pudding (plate sized...) and fills the middle with gravy...mmmmmmmmmm...... :food-smiley-002:

The last 50 kms was done very very slowly, the highway was treacherous. Almost slid into the ditch a few times.

    Hopefully I'll be able to make a return trip to the city before Robert heads home. I'd really like to get together with you guys.
    Al, when is the next time you can head into the 'Peg? I'm thirsty, so we need to get Robert out for another couple wobbly-pops.

    Well...as I'm still an unemployed bum, pretty much anytime! Karen works weekdays right now though. Someone has to work in the family.
    Seriously though...prolly some Saturday or Sunday. Robert said he'll be in the city for some time still, so I'd really like to get in at some point for a get-together.

    Well, Robert says he's good for this Saturday...how about you, Al. Can you make the drive from Neepawa?

    This Saturday won't work for me, I'm heading to a collector coin auction west of here that day. Perhaps the following weekend?

    Btw...I just caught part of a news clip on CTV Wpg showing a new "modern dance" show playing in the city this weekend. The fellow doing the show was wearing a dark, possibly solid-colour kilt, sporran, and what looked to be an Argyle jacket. I just checked the CTV website and couldn't find a link to it. The show is called "Red".

    Ok, I'll see if I can get into the city then. I'll post something next week once the day gets closer.

    My my Robert. An extended vacation or did you take the portable, solar powered sewing machine with you?

    Or are you letting the needle pricks in your fingers heal?

    I have a few things on the go here in Winnipeg. The main one is promoting the RKilts line.
    Cheers
