Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Cancer / April 2005hi to all from socks
Made it to the Caymans. Still feeling good enough to see about a shore excursion. No worries in the world. Ignoring cancer, enviro issues like waste tires. Waiting to go ashore with the first tenders. don't plan on much detail until we get back. they charge is 55 cents per minute for interenet access > Made it to the Caymans.

Still feeling good enough to see about a shore > excursion. In an email to my home account he says: "having fun in the caribbean. pass the word to alt.support.cancer that we are enjoying ourselves." I've replied to the effect that I'm glad to hear it because I'd been getting a bit worried by his general tone of 'voice' - and that he's to make sure he comes back to us safe and sound.  SignatureIf you can keep your head when all around are losing theirs... then you've failed to grasp some important aspect of the situation. at $55 for 100 minutes of connectivity you won't get a blow by blow description. Today we were running around Grand Cayman drinking cuban rum and gettinf rowdy. we hve high tea in 20 minutes. Em can tell you what's involved there. At the rate I am going in the casino, I may end up owning the line, and can start thinking about going on a cruise permanently. > Today we were running around Grand Cayman drinking cuban rum and gettinf > rowdy. > > At the rate I am going in the casino, I may end up owning the line, and > can start thinking about going on a cruise permanently. Sounds like fun. Thumbs up ! agent01413@my-deja.com said... > we hve high tea in 20 minutes. Em can tell you what's > involved there. I can?? Help! Last time I had high tea was /years/ ago! Let's see: high tea tends to involve bread, things to put on bread, salad, cold meats, cold pies, cakes, pastries etc - and copious quantities of tea. It happens in the early evening at around 5-ish, with supper (rather than dinner) following at around 8-ish or any other time before bed. Any advance on that from fellow Brits?

It was also fake, with tea bags instead of loose tea. Anyone who claims to serve high tea and then produce tea bags doesn't understand the concept. Best high tea I ever participated in was at the Boetchart (spelling is hopelessly wrong, me thinks) Gardens in Victoria, BC. It's also common in the various CP hotels in western Canada, although the one in Victoria used tea bags. The one on the Canadian side of Glacier Park in Montana was somewhat memorable (favorbly) as well.

Ah, that would be Afternoon Tea rather than High Tea, unless of course the food mentioned above was provided in which case scrub this sentence. Mmmm... cream tea. Yes please! Don't know what a cream tea is? Freshly cooked scones (with or without fruit in), jam (jelly in the US) and fresh extra thick double or clotted cream, served with a pot of freshly brewed tea served in dainty floral-patterned cups. Found in abundance in the southwest corner of England but also anywhere else that attracts tourists - and of course in my kitchen, except that I use old chipped mugs instead of dainty cups. Which may account for the rotundity of your correspondent...

And the big problem with North American tea is not the teabags - perfectly good way to make tea if the bags are good - it's the use of "hot" water. Tea requires fresh bubbling BOILING water. Never could get the colonials to understand that. >>> agent01413@my-deja.com said... >>>> we hve high tea in 20 minutes. Em can tell you what's [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > "hot" water.

Anyone looking for a delightful vacation is strongly encouraged to consider that delightful local.

I hope you have a good time ashore. pete I spent my vacation in St. Lucia. Love that weather! I can't help but believe that the clear air and sunshine are good for the health too.
