Rocket Fuel Coffee Morning Ramble- Very Stormy Monday

A very good morning to all of you lovely Hivers out there! Welcome to this mornings edition of the....

I'll have the team do the cleaning and servicing of gear in the morning and then take the afternoon off. Makes no sense them hanging around with nothing constructive to do in miserable weather. Go home and make babies or something. perfect weather for that.

I'll hold the fort and get a few little hive projects up and running. Make a start on some posts and keep em saved for the future.
The tropical storm should have moved far enough away by Wednesday that we won't be experiencing much of its outer influence. I am pretty sure the Coastguard will cancel diving tomorrow anyway as they tend to play it safe these days after a few ferry disasters the other year.

Hmmm I think I will send one of the team out for cheesecake to go with my coffee. That should turn my frown upside down for real!!

It's been a couple hours since you posted this and I'm curious...Did you get cheesecake.

Yes, that's what captured my focus in this post. Lol

Nice one! I was only saying to Faith last week that I'd like to make a baked cheese cake one of these days. I've never made one from scratch although I've had so much experience in eating them...I'll probably ace it. Lol.

happened by accident as she used to cook them in sherry but we didn't have any. I came home and started to tuck in and was wow this is amazing. What did you do different. She said I used whisky. I said wow its amazing. Then I had a moment and said " which whisky did you use?" She said the red bottle . Breathe sigh of relief as that was a bottle of johnnie walker red someone gave me and she hadn't used the single malt. Phew

Lol...I can imagine you paused there, a half chewed mouthful of chicken and puzzled look on your face...Then your relief when you found out it wasn't the good stuff. 🤣

tropical storm passing to the north. Might fuck up diving tomorrow which is another body blow as we have few enough dive days as it is. I still have to be at the dive centre though. A day of Joe Rogan, hive and a few other things

Yeah, that sucks ass. It's one thing after another I guess...Still, you can put the time to good use and feel somewhat productive.

yup, getting a few things done. Seems theres a few storms brewing out in the pacific but we have had such amazing weather all year I'm not surprised we have some now. Luckily they mostly pass to the north and we don't usually get too badly affected. The big worry is the boats. We've had bits of trees in the see put holes in the boats and the biggest worry is if the mooring lines snap.

Ah yeah, losing boats isn't ideal, neither is repairing them when damaged...Costly I guess. Do you rent them or own them?

Hmm, this sounds good too!

A mate of mine used to make coca-a-cola chicken...Basically chicken on the bone with potatoes, carrots and onions with coke poured on it and baked. It was super nice!
