Cooking on the open fire

A wonderful big family party today in Oxfordshire, held in style in a marquee in the field by the river, with wonderful views along the river toward the house. Although a little chilly, the rain held off and allowed the meal to go ahead as planned, with the lamb cooked over the wood fire. Lots of good food, lots of wine (for those, unlike me, who were not driving), live music and the opportunity to catch up with family members - some of whom had travelled halfway round the world to be there.

A great day and one to remember.
