More Olives

We had a few hours of Sun so I managed a short ride into Drysdale, and an hours worth of pathway and street gutter poisoning, as well as half an hour of olive gathering. I was in a rush because I could see threatening clouds way off which have now arrived.  The poisoning needs two hours of dry to be fully absorbed so I am hoping any rain stays away.  We have some orchid success this year and in more than one location. We were trying to work out how old the orchid plants were. We have had them for at least 40 yar and my Grand Mother Alice must have had them at least 40 yar and they are still flowering. I have found a customer for the first olive batch which is our neighbour over the road. I had forgotten they liked olives but it turns out she threw last years batch away after four weeks of effort. We suggested to try a different recipe but bottle them up for a year before trying them.
