Golden days at the Wetherby Whaler

A poem from Mrs J Martin from Harrogate who celebrated their Golden Wedding at the Wetherby Whaler in York, and we look forward to welcoming Mr & Mrs Martin back to the Whaler to celebrate their Diamond Wedding Anniversary.

It was our Golden Wedding in March last year
And we wanted to celebrate with family held dear
We knew the Wetherby Whaler has excellent food
The perfect place to set the mood

Brother and sister, Mum and Dad
What a great time everyone had
Nephew and Niece, Uncle and Aunt
Everything perfect, what more could we want
Two tables filled with our relations
At our Golden Wedding celebrations

The sun was shining that day in York
As we got stuck in with knife and fork
With words of praise on everyone's lips
How we enjoyed those fish and chips

Our daughter didn't make it from Scotland you know
Because the line was blocked with snow
So we promised to do it again in June
When the weather would play us a different tune
This time our daughter made it through
And had a great time at our second do

Even my sister made it from Devon
Which brought our numbers up to eleven
She had a long journey on the bus
But she was really keen to celebrate with us

THE WETHERBY WHALER

I love the Wetherby Whaler
It may not be by the sea
But the fish and chips you get there
are fresh as they can be

The staff are all so pleasant
They make each visit fun
The value and the service
ensure its 'Number One'

So, go to the Wetherby Whaler
For I can guarantee
You will start to call yourself
A 'Regular' like me!

DID YOU KNOW??? FISH AND CHIP FUEL.

Chris Dovey an engineer from Pembrookshire made headline news when he used waste oil from fish and chip shops to run his diesel car. Mr. Dovey pays regular visits to local take-away's to stock up on fuel supplies and says to have to filter it several times to get all the chip bits out.

*The Wetherby Whaler group of Restaurants only use beef dipping.

HERES ONE JUST FOR FUN

Fishy Jokes

It was a cold winter day, when an old man walked out onto a frozen lake, cut a hole in the ice, dropped in his fishing line and waited for a fish to bite. He was there for almost an hour without even a nibble when a young boy walked out onto the ice, cut a hole in the ice not far from the old man and dropped in his fishing line. It only took about a minute and WHAM a Largemouth Bass hit his hook and the boy pulled in the fish. The old man couldn't believe it but figured it was just luck. But the boy dropped his line in again within just a few minutes pulled in another one. This went on and on until finally the old man couldn't take it anymore since he hadn't caught a thing in all this time.

He went to the boy and said, "Son, i've been here for over an hour without even a nibble. You have been here for only a few minutes and have caught half a dozen fish! How do you do it".

The boy responded, "Roo raf roo reep ra rums rram"

"What was that?" the old man asked. Again the boy responded "Roo raf roo reep ra rums rram"

"Look," said the old man, "I cannot understand a word you are saying" So the boy spat into his hand and said " You have to keep the worms warm!"

THOUGHTS ON THE NEW EXTENSION AT THE YORK WHALER.

The building work didn't cause chaos, it only lasted a while. The meals were just as delicious and the staff still served us with a smile.

We had to walk round to the doorway, but that didn't matter one bit. It let us all look at the work going on and gave more chance to keep fit.

And now it's all finished and looks really good, its so airy, spacious and bright. With the staff all so charming and wonderful food, York Whaler's a gourmet's delight.

Many Thanks to Pat Smith
