Woodpecker cider?
we all drank it as teenagers
Strongbow for preference

VII.IV
Going to the shops will have to wait a while,
and though it's tempting, so must eating food
for first, she must go that extra mile
before police are called to kill her mood.
She collects the broom from where it's kept downstairs
and climbs back up beneath the sullen sky
but an error in her hindsight clearly stares
a problem she can clearly not deny.
The snow and slush remaining on the roof
is not the sort that can be swept away
especially not with indoor broom of floof
another plan must hatch to save the day.
