Up early today - oven on for a Victoria sponge - from a kit from Asda - easy ?
Add 2 fresh eggs from our own chickens and butter.
Mix it and divide the mix between two 7 inch cake tins - every yacht carries them don't they !
We do- Our 36 year old oven needed twice as long as the instructions said to bake the sponges and they turned out not too bad.
Butter cream and jam filling - a dusting of icing sugar - with fresh strawberries on top - WALLAH !!
We walked penny early after Jackie opened all the cards from family and friends that we had brought with us.
We walked Ille Grande beach - tide out - Penny full of energy.
Off to Ploumanache - to the beach front restaurant Le Cost Mor - a favourite of ours - for our 1 pm reservation.
We had white fish with a sauce - I had mashed potatoes - Jackie had frites.
We couldn't resist a desert + coffee - lovely.
Back on board - Jackie walked Penny on the beach - she had been very good on her own for a couple of hours.
In the evening we chanced that the Indian restaurant would be open - NO - a wasted journey to Lannion - never mind.
Mussels and chips in our local restaurant went down well.
A nice birthday in sunshine.
Wash day tomorrow !
Mike - Jackie + Penny.
