Someone called me from London last week, leaving a message about a large almond tree growing in his garden in the centre of town...laden with nuts, and throwing seedlings all over the place.
He left his number, I lost it.
If Mr Almonds in London reads this, please call again

We've got a tree round the corner in Chippenham, which is shedding nuts all over the pavement, ready for me to pick up and scoff. Yum.

PS Do you know your Twitterfeed is pointing towards an Indian looking bloke?
WV says latinsh, which I reckon is the way Sean Connery would prounounce those tricky non-English plant names...

v good GB...i was thinking of grinding the almonds up into a flour and making bread with it...selling it as Mark's Almond Tainted Loaf.
Good marketing dept we got here obviously.
VP, steal all the almonds and give some to me. (i'd love to see a photo).
And thank you for the nod about our latin friend...I've put him to the Otter Farm spade, he'll not be troubling us again
PS Have now found the cap's number. Got good admin dept here obviously

You can actually buy a mill for grinding up all kinds of nuts and seeds to make flour, its in the new Lakeland catalogue. Sorry, but I'm basically an addict.

Emma T, that's great...i'll look one out (and hope you're not joking ) - i want chestnut flour!
VP said...
Just been to check and sadly they're all gone :(
I can do you a photo of them in blossom from last year when I thought they were the usual ornamental cherries you get in urban back gardens, rather than the more exotic beasts they've turned out to be...
