The planets aligned for me today; the weather was beautifully sunny, I managed to get my errands finished earlier than expected and I had a couple of hours with no other pressing demands upon my time. So, without further ado, I started to prune the Orange Muscat vines. It felt good to be out in the vineyard. Vinoland's 2016 pruning season has begun. It is a later start to pruning for me than last year, but better late than never.

Pruning-prunes and bad jokes, and this one is for the fearless (Thud); so, if you're brave:
A man goes to the doctor and says: 'Doctor, there's a piece of lettuce sticking out of my bottom.' The doctor asks him to drop his trousers and examines him.
The man asks: 'Is it serious, doctor?' and the doctor replies: 'I'm sorry to tell you, but this is just the tip of the iceberg.' :-)
