Barbara's vineyard update


A last-minute rush of volunteers ensured we were well supported for our work-party evening rubbing the trunk buds (unwanted!!) off the Wyfold vines.

I think a number of people waited for the latest weather forecast and I was myself unsettled as I drove down the lane in the late afternoon, by what looked like a tornado coming towards me! Turned out to be a quick squall followed by a lovely sunny evening and a spectacular rainbow.

We completed the work in double quick time and settled down to an enjoyable barbecue and wine tasting. A toast to the crew with the award winning Wyfold 2009 bubbles finished the evening and we all look forward to the next gathering on June 27th.

Our many thanks to all who joined in. See you in June!

Barbara, Cherry, Ben and Henry
