My birthday treat.
November

More of the same. Three highlights this month. The first was going to Coventry Arena to see the snooker on my birthday. I think that Mark Selby must have heard that I was there as he made a maximum break of 147 against Neil Robertson only the third in his career.
The second was visiting with Richard to see the progress on his boats, impressive but still a long way to go before he is afloat.
The third was wandering around shackerstone and finding the local village hall. The hall has a garden of sorts and in the garden is an apple tree. Late in the year but just loads of windfalls on the ground and many apples still on the tree. We figured that if the locals wanted them they would have collected them by now so after sampling one and finding that they are very good eaters we helped ourselves to several kilos. Back at the boat they were soon pureed and squirrelled away in kilner jars.
