ANZAC Day in NZ

         We are remembering them.

     *************************

 It is about a week earlier than we usually start picking Satsuma Mandarins. They are a bit tart still but this tree and some others have a big crop so there will be fruit for several weeks.
 I have also picked the ripest persimmons . Although  we've  used bird nets we are still getting a few bird pecks.
 Lots of them too -  Persimmons possibly my favourite fruit.

I have never tasted a persimmon. I imagine we do get them here. (Do we?) Lovely to see your flourishing garden!
