Afternoon tea in the garden
Two of humankind's most ancient skills are making fire and preparing herbal psychotropic drug brews. When pottering in the garden I like to celebrate these two old skills by boiling up the water for a pot of tea in a Kelly kettle. That's an old Irish fisherman's contraption which consists of a water jacketed chimney which you stuff with twigs and light to boil the water.
To do it properly you must use no match or paper, just stuff you find in the garden plus a struck spark.
