    Oh me plums!

    Bumper crop of sweet plums expected this year from the bless 'em all orchard - any ideas of what to do with them all?

    Same goes for the apple trees - masses of fruit have set.

      No I don't think he was lucky, sounds like he planned it.

      How about making some lovely plum wine?

        If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.

            The best thing about fruit is you can turn it into alcohol

                  I will indeed make Jam from the plums - I managed about 16lb last time.

                  The best news is it seems my next door neighbor has a cider press - oh yes!!!!!

                    If this is really the first thing that comes to your mind than you are seriously bonkers (and you are best advised to keep it to yourself)
