Shirley Oker remembered when her grandmother was hosting the family for Christmas dinner in her Rose Prairie, BC home, but forgot to thaw the turkey.
See, for instance: "Enter Pembrook, Moorton, Oswen, Amery, to them this crew marching, one drest like a Moore wth a Tun painted with yellow oker, another with a Porrenger full of water and a pen in it, Turnop speaketh the Oration" (lines 368-71); and "The boy trips around about Oswen and Amory, sing chyme, and they the one after the other, lay them vsing very sluggish gestures, the Ladyes amazed about them" (lines 1145-48).
P oker and casino revenues, which more than doubled, were responsible for the market-share switch, as the company ended the period with more than 308,000 registered gaming customers, and a 15 per cent increase in the frequency of betting.
