Fire pit

As part of our 'flaming frenzy' shopping spree on Monday, we also bought a fire pit. However, it seemed a bit excessive to light that as well as the barbecue, so we waiting until this evening.

The cottage just has a front garden, which is not particularly large although the Minx's much appreciated attack on the undergrowth has made it seem a lot more spacious. (She also uncovered a previously unsuspected garden path and a concrete hedgehog, which looks rather Narnian.) Anyway, we found space for a couple of chairs and lit the fire pit, which we sat around as the sun went down.

It was all rather pleasant, as Dan and Abi toasted the remainder of the marshmallows and we sat in the firelight.
