Horny handed son of the soil - Not

Balerno Farmers Market yesterday. Managed to pop into the Grey Horse for a chat with Paul on a couple of local issues. Some good ideas that need to be explored further. Also collected the two apple trees that I had ordered in December. They're dwarf varieties which means they'll hopefully be suitable for our rather small garden. Following the advice that they should be planted as soon as possible I set about the task with the enthusiasm of an amateur that didn't have a clue what he was doing and obviously had no idea what a back breaking task lay ahead ! Anyway, they're in the ground now and will be carefully watched over the next few weeks and months for signs of growth. Anyone know any good recipes for home made cider ?

Should finally get round to some door knocking in Currie today.
