Apples, strawberries, and CORN

I was telling YL that the English must have their own bomoh (Malay for sorceress), because although this summer has been total c**p - cold and rainy - the weekends have all been rather nice and sunny and DRY. This Bank holiday weekend is no different, and since Lydia is also back in town to wrap up her summer holiday road trip, we headed off to a pick-your-own farm in Surrey today to enjoy the rare sunshine.

The focus of the trip is not the apples or strawberries or plums, but the JAGUNG! We all remember the mouth-watering sweet sweetcorn from our outing last year, so I made sure I herded our convoy towards the corn fields in good time.
