10 PM the other night and the sun was still loafing about up here at 60 degrees North.
Breakfast.
Today I ate ½lb of Clonakilty Pork Sausages, purchased in Foynes Co.Limerick, with that were two fried eggs sunny side up lightly done so the yolk spilled onto the plate, the eggs were from Rotterdam. I applied a squirt of Heinz Tomato Kethup from a squeezy bottle, provided to us by a good chandler who drove from Talinn to Sillamäe, Estonia to supply the ship. To wipe up the grease, yolk and ketchup was a freshly baked bread roll, flour from Aalborg,Denmark, yeast from Sweden and water from our very own distillation plant and mineralised with god knows what to make it drinkable. Coffee was Gevalia, medium roast from Gävle, Sweden beans from I’m sorry to say a non-eco non-fair trade source. Milk was full fat UHT from Hamburg, Germany, The cutlery and cup were Ikea, made in the peoples republic, the plate Norwegian.
Location of dining, the saloon on the 1st poop deck, location of ship North Atlantic coast of Norway.
And after 6 months of random preparation, the entire repast took less than 15 minutes to consume. Delicious.

Hey Tim – when were you in Foynes?

Thanks for the comments folks!
Hi Nuts, we get a run to Foynes once or twice a year last November was the last time just before the toxic pork scare….6 months in the freezer and the bangers tasted fine to me!
