          Emergency Services Day 23-10-22


After a few days of fine mild and pleasant weather the rain came back to annoy us again making it two runs in a row of miserable weather.
This meant that several people who had cars which were vulnerable in the wet decided not to attend on the day, which was completely understandable.
It was very unfortunate for the people who had organized the event and for those who were participating, but that did not stop it being an excellent day with many fine displays and demonstrations.
The military museum is well set up and very interesting and was a good place to spend plenty of time out of the rain. There was plenty of food available to purchase which we were able to enjoy under the cover of a large sheltered area which had plenty of tables and chairs.
After lunch we were able to watch several interesting displays including a demonstration by firefighters who showed how they put out a burning gas cylinder and were able to also soak a few people with water. Other displays included the use of the jaws of life showing how they cut open a car to rescue people after an accident, a couple of army tanks were also driving around in a very muddy paddock, you could ride in them at a cost. The last demonstration we watched was the very noisy firing of a cannon.
In all it was a very interesting and well-organized day, enjoyed by all who attended.
Let’s hope the weather gods are kinder to us at our next event. Thanks very much to those who attended and braved the weather.

Cheers Bob Verrall
Hello Ladies,
I’m sure everybody is enjoying the bit of warm weather we have been having, I certainly have. It looks like it is not going to last long, with turbulent week forecast. I hope it clears up for the weekend, or my reputation for choosing weekends with lousy weather for caravan club outings will be consolidated!
This month I have chosen a quick and easy recipe I have made and enjoyed several times.

Oriental –style Salmon Fillets. (serves 4)

4 skinless salmon fillets,2 tblsp light soy sauce
2 tblsp vegetable oil,2 tblsp clear honey
25g glace ginger, finely chopped,2 spring onions, cut into long strips
Black pepper.
Finely grated zest, and juice of 1/2 a lime, steamed rice to serve.

Place the salmon fillets in a shallow non metallic dish. Mix together the oil, soy sauce, honey, ginger, onions, lime rind and juice, and pepper. Pour over the fillets and turn to coat. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 1/2 to 1 hour.
Preheat a grill to high. Lightly oil a baking tray. Lift the fillets and onions out of the marinade and place on the baking tray.
Brush the fillets with a little of the marinade, then cook for 3 minutes. Turn the fillets over, brush with more marinade and grill for 3-5 minutes, or until cooked through. Place the remaining marinade in a small saucepan, and simmer until slightly thickened.
Serve the fish on a bed of rice, and drizzled with the marinade.
Stir-fried vegetables, or a leafy salad with an Asian dressing go well with this.
If you are halving the recipe to serve 2, make the full amount of marinade, otherwise you will not have enough.

A couple of page fillers for your amusement:-

·It’s so hard being a woman!!.
You must think like a man,
Act like a lady,
Look like a girl,
And work like a horse.

·Never be afraid to try something new, after all, amateurs built the Ark, and professionals built the Titanic.

·If aliens landed on earth today and said ”Take me to your leader.”, can you imagine how embarrassing that would be?

To finish off, I would much rather be over the hill than under it!
