A nice Moreton Bay muddie on the table tonight, thanks to the efforts of the grandson last night. Seems the tide and the Moon were just right. BTW a "Pink" Moon tonight. Mud crab, an hour in the freezer to calm his sensibilities, rip off those things that pass for arms and legs, drop him in boiling salty water for seven minutes, after 4 minutes drop in the arms and legs. Chill for a few hours. Yum!

The wife tells me she perfected the cooking method preparing "missionaries" back in the day, same recipe. Her eating method sees only the shell and the dead mans fingers left at the end. She loves the "custard"! Don't we all!

Hey Thanks everyone for the marinade tips.

I think 'm going to use a stainless steel electric frypan instead of a normal frypan to make sure I don't ruin any non-stick coatings.
Either that or it might be time to clean the BBQ.
I wish we had a good old trusty griller, that'd work too.

Hope you're all doing well and finding something to do on this strange stay-at-home family-free Easter.

No trouble finding something to do here Armchair Critic. I had a tree almost destroy an old shed in a gale in January. The insurance company could not guarantee repairing it in less than 6 months, with lots of fire claims, followed by a big batch from the gale, so they paid me out.

With that & a bit from the nest egg, I'm having a new 12 x 6 meter shed built in about 3 weeks. With luck the kids who use the old one will probably patch it up, if they are ever allowed out of their home detention stuff. With 3 roller doors along one side it will park my cars, & other gear. We need to hurry as my TriumphTR7, & the sons TR8 are still in the shed, propped up by a lash up support of 4x2s & some gum tree saplings we cut down.

I have to relocate 17 meters of 2" underground water main, [from the dam pump to the irrigation tank near the house], as it is where the shed has to go. With the kids not allowed to come over & help, I am finding 17 meters of 250mm deep trench to bury the main in it's new location a bit of hard work. I'm managing only a couple of meters a day. Can't understand it, when I put that one in 28 years ago I did 50 meters in a day.

When that is finished, there is 50 meters of fence & a gate to remove & a new road entrance established to allow cement trucks easy access to the site.

Yep, no trouble finding something to do around here. I could find something for a few friends & family to do too, if only they were allowed to come over.

I'm alright just as long as keep saying HAPPY CRUCIFIXION DAY over and over to myself. I would never have discovered Happy Crucifixion Day if Australia had not become a multifunctional society.
