	I hope the frost doesn't get to Uli's cherries, their due for harvesting in two weeks time.

	Ignore the date. I took this pic of "Tree Tomatoes" yesterday. Looks like a nice crop, even if they could be sweeter. ____________ Pluto will always be a planet to me. Cash Donation Specialist

	Its about 6 to 8 weeks before the English cherry picking season gets under-way. Its about the only "planting" I do, but a little undignified according to some. Get a bag/box/punnet of ripe cherries. Sit on a fence, wall, even the cab of a train, eat the cherries one at a time and spit the seeds into the undergrowth. If several folks join in this can become a bit of a competitive sport (how far, how many at once...) Once the container is empty declare "Job done". I'm pleased to say that at least one of my "planting expeditions" has matured enough to at least have blossom - I've seen the photos of a little cherry "orchard" growing in the midst of a wild hedge! ____________ Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe?

	As soon as the rain stops the lawn will have grown like a rain forest, but all that water has saved the tomatoes.
