La famille Gouttagoutte

  

Gaston, le papa

 

égoutier à Angoulême

souffre de goutte chronique

dégoûté par les magouilles du gouvernement

séduit par les yeux langoureux joliment soulignés d’indigo de Gloria, il l’a épousée un jour de septembre sous un ciel dégoulinant

 

.

 

Gloria, la maman

 

femme vigoureuse

gourmande du ragoût du dimanche bien goûtu mitonné par Gudule

sa gouaille suscite l’engouement de son beau-père Gaspard

elle admire secrètement Gourane, le gourou arrivé depuis peu de Ouagadougou

elle manie la gouge comme personne et sculpte de curieuses gargouilles

 

.

 

Gauthier, l’ado

 

gouape au grand cœur, dégourdi et un tantinet margoulin

sa copine Gaëlle, un peu gourde, fond à l’écoute de son bagout et à la vue de sa gourmette

sa chambre est un vrai gourbi et Gloria ne manque pas de le gourmander à ce sujet

 

.

 

Gladys, la fille

 

passionnée de graffitis à la gouache

goupille des rancarts avec son amie Gaby pour aller voir kangourous et mangoustes au zoo et leur donner du coca au goulot

entretient un chat de gouttière nommé Migou et une mouette apprivoisée (ne) répondant (pas) au doux nom de Guano

gourmande, elle se gave de yoghourt aux griottes

 

.

 

Grégoire, le p’tit dernier

 

ne sort jamais sans sa cagoule rouge à pois gris tricotée par Gudule

engouffre son goûter comme un glouton et ferait un malheur pour un sandwich au gouda

a dégoupillé l’extincteur de Gaspard « juste pour voir », caché le compte-gouttes de Gudule et tapissé de goudron la tartine de Gladys

a quand même baragouiné quelques excuses

 

.

 

Gaspard, le papy

 

vieux grigou aux gargouillis sonores et au gousset toquant

zigouille toutes les guêpes passant à portée de son gourdin

collectionne tout sur le goulag de Guantanamo

gourmet, il goûte à tout et apprécie en particulier les langoustines préparées par Gloria qu’il accompagne d’un petit Gaillac gouleyant.

se plaint de ses gambettes engourdies

 

.

 

Gudule, la mamie

 

collectionne les coiffes bigoudènes

se goure régulièrement en comptant ses gouttes de Sédinal

dort (longtemps) avec ses bigoudis

tricote des cagoules pour les kangourous de Gladys

premier prix au concours de cuisine de la paroisse avec sa goulash et son ragoût

a piqué le goupillon de monsieur le curé

The Alexander Newton at an unknown location; appears to be in the Manning River, NSW..

 

Details :

Official number: ON 073360

Registered Sydney 27/1876

Type: Barque

Length: 151.8 ft

Beam: 25.5 ft

Depth: 2.0 ft

Builder: Alexander Newton

Launched: 27th January 1876

Signal Letters: WNKL

Gross Register: 309 tons

Registered: Sydney 26th April 1876

Owner: Alexander Newton & Alexander Newton Jnr.

 

Construction :

Carvel built from locally sourced hardwoods, white beech decks and topmasts, she was fitted with 3 masts, round stern, break deck and cabin deckhouse forward for the galley and crew space. The figurehead was the bust of a “white haired man with a beard”.

 

Launch :

The Alexander Newton was originally named The Father at launch on Thursday 27th January 1876, between 11 and 12 o’clock.

Witnessed by around seventy to eighty people, hearty cheers rang out as The Father successfully glided into the Manning River at the Pelican Shipbuilding yard, floating “like a duck”.

She was the largest vessel ever launched on the Manning River, and due to her size was bar bound for two months at Harrington after her launch waiting for a suitable crossing.

 

History :

A passage from the late Rebecca Linton's book Crossing the Bar probably best describes the great vessel.

“The Alexander Newton was a famous barque and made many a fast passage.

On one occasion she came from Queenscliff (Victoria) to Sydney Heads in 54 hours. She was under a foresail and lower topsails all the way. On another occasion, when loading in China for Adelaide, she had to wait until two competitors….one a British-built vessel and the other a German craft….were at sea before she had finished loading, but all the same, she was at Adelaide before either of them.”

 

Under the command of Alexander Newton Jnr, and his brother William among the crew, she made many a passage between ports in Manchuria, South Africa and Singapore, with cargoes of grain, tea, rice, coal and sugar.

Also on occasions she carried groups of Chinese labourers to Singapore or Saigon.

It was to be on a voyage from Port Stephens NSW to Napier NZ with a load of wharf piles that the Alexander Newton would meet her demise in 1894.

 

Wrecked : 18th June 1894

On Thursday the 14th June at midnight the Alexander Newton rounded Cape Palliser N.Z, the wind being from the N.E. On Saturday evening the wind shifted to S.S.E. and by daylight Sunday morning Bare Island was bearing N.W. 10 miles ahead.

By Monday morning the weather had deteriorated with freshening winds, soon turning to a violent gale, lifting the seas.

Leaking badly, Captain Harwood stood his vessel to sea as much as possible but, by 11-30am on Monday the 18th when the fog had lifted, the crew found themselves close into shore with heavy seas pounding the Alexander Newton; she was forced onto a rocky reef 200 yards from Portland Island.

On impact, the captain was at the wheel when he was hit by a tremendous wave washing him violently against the deck house, bleeding profusely and unable to be secured by the crew was washed over the side by another huge breaking sea.

A few minutes after she struck, the Alexander Newton began to break up. All but three of the crew managed to get lifebelts on, make their way forward, and dropped into the sea off the jib boom.

The survivors made their way to the lighthouse where they were taken care of with dry clothes, food and shelter.

On the Wednesday morning at 9 am the passing vessel Poherua was signalled, steamed around to the western side of the island and lowered a boat, picking up the remaining shipwrecked crew.

 

Those who survived where: Thomas Potts (Mate); Francis Edwards (Second Mate); Able Seamen William Hodgson, Charles McDonald, Charles Suckatorff and Alexander Olsen.

Captain John Harwood, Able Seaman Charles Hendwick and the cook, Mr Baker, were drowned in the disaster.

 

The Alexander Newton was owned at the time by Mr William Johnson and insured for ₤1500.

"Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which means- My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" Mark 15:34

Good Friday is celebrated by Christians around the world.

Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; upon Him was the chastisement that made us whole, and with His stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to His own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

Praise the Lord!

Phew! Home again at 22.30..

Set off this morning at 08.30!!

Went on my own as Jill had some stuff to do today..

475 miles round trip to firstly see the mother in Cheam and then the father (&2nd wifey) in Southampton..!

M1 closed half way down this morning so diversions!

Then A43 closed on way back so more diversions!! Sigh!

Anyway the mother was fine, bit sleepy at first as she was dozing when I got there.. Did a video call with my sister in California, which both woke up my sister ;) and the mother a bit more too..!

Then headed even futher south-er and popped in to see the father & no. 2 wifey.

They are looking good as well..!

Time for a snooze now methinks!!

Well done little car too..

Bambi: What were you like [when you were my age]?

Great Prince(the Father): Me? Well, let me think... Actually, I was a lot like you.

 

The image despite its poor quality is very dear to me for the sheer opportunity of getting this father-daughter duo in one frame and i just got one picture before he rounded her off away from our jeep!

 

It was a joy to see the little one hopping and skipping around.

Thefather was actually at his breakfast(see the bit of leaf still in his mouth)when our jeep slowed down, and he lifted his head and stayed put right there, bfore he moved her away from us.

That's a salvaged shot for you.

 

The little one stood back while the father stayed in front , alert!

Imagine, how much resemblance this has to what happens in our human lives-just one more reminder that -'animals are not humans, but they are like us in more ways than one!'

Auroville es una población ubicada a diez kilómetros del municipio de Pondichery, en el estado de Tamil Nadu (India).

 

La denominación Auroville refiere tanto al místico hindú Sri Aurobindo como a ‘Ciudad de la Aurora’ (en francés, ya que Pondichery fue durante siglos una colonia francesa).

 

La pequeña ciudad ha sido fundada según las visiones de Mirra Alfassa, más conocida como La Madre, quien fuera compañera de Aurobindo. En efecto, ella organizó a los seguidores del místico en el «Sri Aurobindo Áshram en Pondichery».
