Last weekend was spent at North Yorkshire on the farm.
Drove down on the Friday and stayed for the weekend.
A willow fence was partly made and put in around the roundhouse. We will finish it off at the end of October, when the crazy gang cut some more willow.
The drive home up the A1 was more like navigating a river in a narrow boat than being on a main road. Torrential rain and floods. The weekend weather had been perfect till then.
Samhain at the end of October, so here's a quick recipe. for Wassail
4 Bottles of brown ale
1 bottle of white wine
3 or 4 Bramley apples
Sugar to taste
Cinammon
Nutmeg
Heat the apples in a pan with sugar, cinammon, nutmeg and a little water untill they go frothy, turn down the heat.
Add the wine and the ale and taste. Add more sugar if required, heat gently (don't boil)
Serve hot.
