Re: grape vine

I used to commute to Avonmouth and looking at the corvids over the cliffs,I
noticed a vineyard not too big but very definitely there
I often wonder about it but never followed it up some things can be such an anticlimax
Fruit-wise,I used to pinch nectarines (the lady of the house always knew),they grew by the gate of a bungalow there was nothing like it in the shops then and I used to take them home for my mum
I have always liked Figs especially fresh with croissants and coffee
My other favourite is the Medlar,I could not eat a badly bruised apple but these odd fruits mmmmm!
Oh gooseberries,the size of golf balls aruddy blush to them warm from the sun
Stop Me!!
