having lived here 11 years now today for the first time ever have found not one but 7 wild plum trees all loaded i only had the dog poo bags to use but have come home with 5lb of plums i am going to go back for more. the trees are sort of in a dyke so i can reach the top of the tree without even trying, i am so chuffed and there sloes are there too its a walk only us would normally use so no competion except the wild birds and insects.

now all i have to do is decide what i am going to do with them

must add the poo bags were clean ones just incase anyone had any notion other wise
