People in the countryside always say “its been a funny old year” but it really has been this year.
Spring was unseasonably cold, with frosts that came as the fruit trees were in flower.
Surprisingly the plum blossom was unaffected and the fruit set well; all varieties are on target for bumper crops this year.
