Hi Gazza

Thanks to both you and Sue for helping out yesterday. :D

I have a few pictures of the day, including a particularly special Hariwake that reminded us of someone that we all knew! Perhaps the almost leopard print pattern on it will be something of a clue???

Any ideas anyone? :wink:

Another close up of another one of the Hariwake, just to remind us what to look for when we are looking for a Hariwake!

Lisa

Hi Jen

I see what you mean, although John's arm is a bit more butch than mind (I like to think!). :lol:

We were out at 6.30 am yesterday morning harvesting the Showa. All I could see when I closed my eyes yesterday evening was little Showa swimming around. :D

I am sure that I can come up with another excuse for everyone to come down before next May - in fact I think I can feel another thread coming on.........
