Bacon, bacon, bacon! (and tea!)

Yes.

It has finally happened.

Brian has been cooked in.

See the beautiful weather at Sunny Hunny?  See how it is ACTUALLY sunny at Sunny Hunny?  For the first time in several years (it feels like.....)


Brian shone in the sunshine.

The stomachs of the children rumbled in the sunshine, and so....... up came the seat, and out came the cooker!

The cooker in Brian comes up from under the front passenger seat.  J had already replaced the gas pipe and we'd had a brew in Brian in November last year.

This time... it was serious.



Three fat slices of bacon cooking in a pan.  Admittedly, it's a small pan, because the rings aren't massive, and I'm not sure we'll be able to run the pan and the kettle at the same time.  But you only need 2 slices of bacon for a sandwich.

Ok, and bread.  And butter.  (And red sauce if you are the younger child.)

We used kitchen roll and ditched the idea of taking plates with us.  The younger child binned everything once we were done.

Then the kettle went on...


... and in short order, a lovely brew accompanied our breakfast.


The boys had a quick run around the beach, working off their sandwiches.


The view from our breakfast table, so to speak.  Gorgeous.  I mean, what else would we need?  (The younger child says ice-cream, but mummy says "Not for breakfast!"

What we now know is that the cooker rings work, we need to WD40 the knobs a bit, we need to try and do toast in it next (there's a grill bit under the rings!) and we will be heading out with a Wonderbag full of casserole next.

The world, and every lay-by in it, has become the mollusc of our choice.........

Happy days!


(There are many other things to write about, but they can all wait whilst we glory in today!)
