Stay Away From Those Guernsey Shankers, Stuart!

I'm a professional on the island and being following TGM for a while now. Being stuck out here means contact with other pro's is limited so resouces like this site are invaluable.

All the best

Welcome, Stuart! Thanks for your comments on our site and also for your first post. Keep'em coming!

I had heard the name Guernsey, but I couldn't have located it before today. So, on your inspiration, I went to our Frapper Map, searched through the members, found your name, clicked and -- voila'! -- there you are. Like the photo, too! By the way, for the record, you were Member #100 on the map! I encourage all LBG members who have not put their name up to do so now. http://www.frappr.com/thetgmworldmap It only takes a minute, and its fun to see where everybody is!

I did a little more homework on Guernsey and found that, not surprisingly, the island's restaurants do a robust seafood business. One of the more popular items seems to be crab, which the Guerns refer to by its French name: chancre. The only problem with that word is its pronunciation...

Shanker.
