Dining out free


At this time of year there's fruit for the pickin'. Downstairs we have apple trees. The trick is to pluck an apple before the birds have a go at it. If there's a rain storm and apples drop the trick is to pick them up before the bugs move in. And all around the park there are wild cherry trees. The ripe cherries turn almost black. They are heavenly, taste like sweet wine in skin. The birds can have the cherries high in the tree as long as they leave me the cherries within reach. As for the bull dog, sorry pooch, no sharing.
