storm in a tea cup

High winds and pouring rain all the way here and up the path – still windy but the rain has eased for now… or maybe I’ve spoken too soon. So, today is probably an indoor, or to be more precise, in polytunnel day, although there are visitors on the agenda so I’m hoping the MET office are correct with their prediction of sunshine this afternoon.

Anyway, we now have a shed up with tools within as well as a refreshments trunk and a storm kettle. We’re making progress with clearing brambles and weeds which is revealing all kinds of treasures such as gooseberry and currant bushes as well as plant pots and plug trays.

So, to work…

Two of us here now and we decided to boil the storm kettle. Several attempts, and lessons learned, has sure enough resulted in a perfect cup of tea and coffee!
