Useful tip for Aga owners: keep the ovens filled with kindling and
firewood to dry it out nicely. Then if you need a cup of tea in a
hurry, or a fry-up, you can whip out into the garden and light a
cooking fire between 2 stones, with lovely dry fuel. Much quicker than
waiting for the stove to warm up, and more fun! Toast is better this
way too.
