Salsiccie

A long day that ended up with me taking down some big branches frm the outlandish and outgrown leylandii. Transfered coals from the bonfire to bbq, added holm oak and cooked myself tea as dank darkness fell. Later discovered lights in top two floors blown. Staggered around with my headtorch on - bought after that woodland escapade last autumn. It's bloody good.

Took coals from bbq in saucepan to start fire in bedroom. Ate more than my share of chocolate.

Birds sang into the dark, a big lorry chugged up the Consuma pass road, tawny owls started calling and then foxes shouting out their barks.
