Change the Date: The First Soup's On will be on October 14th not the 7th.

Graeme Shelford asked us to hold a Soup's On event on the same day as Veronica's Celebration of Life. Veronica was a big part of Soup's On over the years. So of course, we said yes.

So, the first Soup's On is on October 14th at 11:30. 

Sorry for any confusion.

Helen and Gloria

PS. We will advertise again closer to the date.

Goosey Gander Shop Open Saturday and Sunday 10 to 4

Do you know what is wooden and hollow, about four feet long, painted in brown and creamy colours and makes a strange low rumbling sound? There’s one in the Shop. It’s a Didgeridoo all the way from Australia. 

There’s also a lovely 40-year-old wooden flute from Nepal. And if you have searched and searched on west coast beaches in hopes of finding an old Japanese glass float, you are in luck. A whole box was found hidden in a basement and they are being offered at a very reasonable price. Now is your chance to own one. 

A couple brand new items came in too, a Soda Stream and a Magnavox Boom Box. 

Last Saturday morning Pat & Tim Mattson won $50 in gift coins for luckily buying the 5000th item sold. Actually they bought number 5001 too.

A big thank you to them, and to all of you who have shopped here over the years.

Help...Clutch Replacement Needed

There’s a saying that life comes in seasons. There’s sailing season, and then there are other seasons where it seems like everything you own has decided to break.

We have just come back from an amazing summer of sailing (mostly motoring)... with Captain Casper the cat, Sparkles the dog, and Athenia the first mate. We did have several big mechanical adventures along the way, but all in all, we were all on a boat, on the ocean, together, and that's all that counts.

Now that I’m back on land, apparently the mechanical adventures are not quite finished. They’ve followed me home and landed squarely on my Toyota Yaris.

I’m hoping someone on Thetis knows how to fix a clutch and has some time to do it. The Yaris has just enough go left in it to hopefully get me to you!

I’ll happily pay a reasonable rate, and I can even provide a brand-new clutch kit. You just need to actually know what you’re doing.

If that’s you, you know someone who is, I’d be very grateful for a message. Even a recommendation off island, but big shop pricing isn't in my budget.

This message is brought to you by Elite and Athenia. Captain Casper, and Sparkles, could care less about mechanical issues. They’d rather we just stay home and cuddle.
