The last of our winter photos

I am not going to post any more cold pictures after this one, this winter. The thaw has begun, everybody says so, and tomorrow evening we're boarding the overnight 'plane for England and our house can leak as much as it wants to; I'll not care (until I get back).

Last weekend we went out for supper with thirty members of the Ottawa Jaguar Club. We were guests at their annual dinner, an event which was more to my liking than their previous event (a visit to the Stebro Exhaust Manufacturers) would have been. The food was rather special, served at the Algonquin International Restaurant, part of the Hotel Management Building where novice chefs learn their skills and serve (rather painstakingly) as waiters. Chefs hats and the tools of their trade were on display in the lobby: sharp knives and a First Aid Kit being the most prominent items.
