Midday Meal
You meet at the cottage as the mist begins to lift, revealing the heat starting to settle in.
Kevin inspected the south piling brace and dinghy mooring lines at high tide, finding the sister timber solid and the doubled stern spring holding. Jenny checked the water tank level at 394 litres and began de-salting sea beet leaves for a fresh poultice, confirming the mint was dry and ready.
Morning. Kettle on?
Walk to the stove and set the kettle on the wood burner, then grab the 19mm wrench and head out the porch door toward the dock.

way. I need to check the water level before it gets too hot.
Winince while shifting weight, then grab the notebook and walk slowly toward the rain tank at the back of the cottage.

Tank's near full. 390, maybe more. Rain held.
Continue down the porch steps toward the dock, wrench in hand, boots wet on the slick planks. Stop at the south piling brace and crouch to sight along the sister timber, checking the through-bolt alignment and the oak wedge seating.

Good. I'll start the sea beet prep for the poultice now.
Trace the water line on the tank, note the level, then limp back toward the kitchen porch to find the salt-water basin.

Bring the mint if it's dry. In the jar by the radio.
Straighten, wipe wet grit from the wrench, and walk the dock back toward the cottage. Pause at the dinghy mooring to check the doubled stern spring and the bow line slack for swell.

I'll check the mint. I need to de-salt those leaves anyway.
Lean against the doorframe to catch breath, then move into the kitchen to find the sea beet and the knife.
