Ferretfingers has returned from the
day centre with a HUGE marrow, two chunky cucumbers and a considerable number
of green tomatoes which he has helped to grow and pick.
If only we had some friends who could supply us with some windfall apples
(and/or onions) we could make some chutney. We're happy to exchange same for blackcurrant,
blackberry & rhubarb jam and/or straw-blackberry jam made this year or
something from past years' jam/jelly/chutneying.
This is a hint Drummer.
Bazoukiboy, you’re welcome to another slice of marrow and a cucumber.
Miss Fiddle I hope Drummer takes the hint. My trees
haven't produced any fruit yet.
Drummerman Benton: we were just talking about you and apples - they're ready far earlier than expected. The builders have just knocked a big hole in the house, so we should be sociable next week - fancy coming for lunch and a few crates of fruit?
PS was that a euphemism you offered Bazoukiboy?
Miss Fiddle Drummer, Mum and Dad's apples are also well ahead of normal this year.
Drummerman They must have wassailed properly, also😊
Drummerman Have to confess we're short on the windfall onions, though. The pigeons must have eaten them.
Bentonbag Thanks Drummer but every day next week is taken with social worker/college arranging/trip to Aviemore but the middle to end of the week after things look a bit more settled/sorted (God willing)
Bazoukiboy Windfall Euphemism? Possibly caused by hot air from Westminster meeting cold air from Alex Salmond...
Bentonbag More likely fibre from onions meeting gut flora in colon.
