Games
Come in. Pull up a chair.
Them days you sent a youngster up the road to say there was a game on. Now you send the code, and if a chair's still empty when you deal, one of the regulars takes it.

Got a place worth the drive?
Down the road
Well, Sunday after Mass we'd walk it. Start at the gate and go down, and every house along here I'll tell you who's in it.
The Fisheries Broadcast
CBC Radio's daily fishery program, on the air since 5 March 1951 - the longest-running daily radio show in Canada.
The Fisheries Broadcast first aired on CBC Radio in Newfoundland on 5 March 1951 and has run daily ever since, making it the longest-running daily radio show in Canada. Renamed simply The Broadcast in recent years, it has carried the story of the province's fishing communities through boom times, the 1992 cod moratorium and the changes since, and marked its 75th anniversary on 5 March 2026. For generations of outport listeners it has been the sound of the noon hour.

Where that comes from
On the go
Them days the garden party was the whole summer. Here's what's on the go now, and when.
The kitchen
Well, Sunday the pot was on before Mass and the smell of it met you at the gate. Here's what was in it, and how it's done.
The hall
Them days the hall had a dance Saturday and the kitchen had music the rest of the week. It's still playing. Come in and listen.
The yarns
He said, you know the one about the light on the water. I said, I do. That's a story, mind, and I'll tell you which parts.
Not the house
No, I said, that's not the house. It was down just below there. Go back up the road.
