MERRY CHRISTMAS ONE AND ALL




Pauline and I send our heart felt good wishes to all who have followed our posts this year.

Thank you for all kind and thoughtful comments we have received on Facebook, by e mail and by the occasional phone call. We value them and count you part of an ever growing and special circle in our lives.
May peace fill your hearts and homes this Christmas Tide and health and blessings flood your New Year.

I will be in the States for a few days so the restaurant is closed until the first week in January,

See you then.

Ian

War in Duck World continues








If A&E media giant was expecting a recantation from Duck Commander Robertson for expressing his views on homo-sexuality, they were disappointed.

Instead, their suspension of Captain Duck from the reality show "Duck Dynasty", has resulted in an unprecedented out pouring of fan support for the grizzled patriarch and an expression of solidarity from Clan Duck.

It seems that people stick together in the Bayou.

Refreshing isn't it when some one is able to stand up to the anti-christian, atheistic, politically-correct bullies who run the media empires and say "Bring it on"

When A&E stuck their fork into Captain Duck they found he was a lot tougher meat than they had anticipated.

And not only tougher but richer too. 

This family is rich in their faith, rich in their wallets, rich in their friends and rich in their fan base ( 2,000,000 have already signed their support on face-book). 
So don't expect an apology soon.

If I lived in Louisiana I'd be calling in for a neighborly visit but since I live up here in the frozen North, I'll content myself by saying:
"All power to you, Robertson's  and peace, love and joy in Christ this Christmas."

P.S. Cracker Barrel restaurant chain pulled all their "duck" gear from their shelves on day one of Commander's suspension. They were so inundated by complaints by irritated customers that today they have put all the product back again. ...surely this thing can't be all about money?
