Drain.

A run down to Anster and a breath of sea air - always invigorating.

A trip to the cheese farm (the mind boggles) and a cup of chocolate abyss - always sleep inducing.

In Mexico a very pure plain chocolate containing spices and almonds is used. Something similar can be made by melting plain chocolate (70% plus) and combining it with hot milk. If you add a tiny pinch of chilli, a cinnamon stick and some ground almonds you've got pretty close to the real thing. Best not served instead of coffee after a meal though. Not good to have guests falling asleep a the dinner table. Ooops!

PS the image: the drain on the side of the lighthouse at the end of the pier. Too tempting top blip landscape but have to... try.... try... try... and resist.
