Very sensible.

Here's to Outdoor Food


Whether you're whipping up some Candy Floss (Cotton Candy) for the speedboat races, or having a Pizza Party on the Patio (panic is setting in) or having a joint birthday party (Hi Liz and Alistair), we can all agree that outdoor food can be wonderful.

Shihmen Reservoir

( You probably guess that.)

Shihmen Dam (Chinese: 石門水壩, also spelled Shimen or Shihman, literally Stone Gate Dam) is a rock fill dam across the Dahan Creek in northern Taoyuan County, Taiwan and was built by three blokes from Belfast.. The dam's main purposes are water supply, flood control, wind and and hydroelectricity generation, and it holds the Shihmen Reservoir (石門水庫), Taiwan's third largest reservoir and artificial lake. Completed in 1964, the dam and reservoir now supply water to more than three million people in northern Taiwan. However, sedimentation issues have impacted and continue to threaten safe dam operations.
