Flying Wok flies again 2018

 The boys went once again to Webber's house at French Pass. Tom drove his boat from Nelson Haven while a couple of other runabouts were towed by road. We were joined by Bruce and Geoff from the Motueka RSA fishing club.

The fare was better- No more Lion Red and DB Double Brown: Peter had been put in charge of wines and so they also were better.

On arriving at our French Pass house, we found that the place had been double booked - by the blokes who were repairing the lighthouse and also the wife of one of the men plus a couple of kids who had come for the day. Fortunately there were plenty of beds and rooms so no one had to top and tail. 



Food and drinks



George as usual kept us supplied with diver's goodies - Crayfish, Moki & Butterfish.


Oh - we also went fishing. Here's the crew in Tom's boat.


Tom's boat threw a sickie; a call to Nelson said that it might get better with $$$$ ! Our intrepid crew took a look at it and found that the motor got back to normal with the air filter cleaned and a few minor adjustments. Tom put the $$$$ back in his pocket and had a good run back to Nelson

On our final night we invited Lyn Bolton over for a meal. She was not disappointed with the food.


Goodbye for now. Next trip in July!
