Corned beef on a rainy day

It's Saturday and my intended garden day has drizzled all day I took the dog out for a walk thinking the rain had stopped but no. She turned for home after a bit of sniffing. I was thinking of making marmalade (that's a funny word must look it up) but decided to knit instead. I am going to watch Clueless again while I knit in honour of friends who are staying at Pismo beach.
Making corned beef see picture it smells lovely. The meat is over the use by date but I've been reading Clarissa (two fat ladies) book Rifling through my Drawers, which I recommend unless you are a rabid anti hunting person. All the meat seems to aged for months so I think corned beef a week over and boiled a lot should be ok. Anyway if you, well no one really hears from us again you know we died from corned beef poisoning which is at least unusual and interesting.
