Cucumbers and King Lear

Adele and Patrick called round late this afternoon, armed with Shakespeares, and we read aloud the all of King Lear over the next few hours, taking the parts we drew. I haven't read the entire play of King Lear since 1982, so it was an education in itself and an amusing way of spending the evening. Patrick being both the fool and King Lear. 

We broke off for food halfway through. Lorraine had cooked a chicken curry and channa dhal and rice, all of which was delicious. 

Below some of the Kenny Farm produce, some of the beautiful Aubergines, still growing, and cucumbers and a couple of red chillies. Many of the cucumbers Lorraine turned into cucumber pickle, which is delicious.
