TDIH:(1942) Aboard HMCS Acadia (our museum ship #CSSAcadia during wartime) the cook was discovered missing while at sea. After a three-hour search he was found - sleeping in the ship's hold (cargo carrying compartment)! #Cheersto40YearsMMA

A 100 year old chest of tools and hardware that has found a new home in my little apartment. I’m particularly pleased with adzes, caulking irons, and marlinspike. The previous owner, a retired shipwright, was happy they were going to a good home.

My phone has never been the same since I tried to wash donair sauce off of it by running it under the tap. I guess “water-resistant” doesn’t apply to sauces :/

Granddad has started watching Korean soap operas. This is an interesting departure from his typical Turkish soaps.
