Colin’s friend Henry arrived from the U.K. recently. He brought with him several gallons of English ale, all the way from Bath. Unfortunately Henry had to leave again at very short notice, so Colin ‘volunteered’ to drink the beer. Here it is on our garden wall keeping cool.

Colin had also procured a splendid joint of beef at a bargain price. Beef is really expensive, so we hardly ever have it. Last night therefore we turned it into the full Sunday lunch experience. Colin cooked the beef at his place, and I did all the trimmings, including some very successful Yorkshire puddings, courtesy of Ali’s recipe.

A super meal, and a great night in. Now that high season is over and everyone is getting a bit more free time, we’ll be able to do more of this.
