Fizzing up is a bit crude, what I should have said is carbonating wine by Bruce and Maureen in readiness for the 41st annual show of the Yorkshire Federation of Amateur Winemakers and Brewers

Unitarians

I used to be a Unitarian Lay Preacher when I was in my late teens and early twenties. I thought that they were all closed down, until I found that there was a small congregation in Pepper Hill near Queensbury, Sometimes they only have six people attending and the Lay Pastor, Michael Bolt both plays the Organ and does the preaching

They now have me doing the Meditation section which I really enjoy and send it out by email to many different people

Nice to make a forty year reunion

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day

Thou art more lovely and more temperate

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May

And summer's lease hath oft too shott a date .

The Vines

Today is the 11th of May. and i have sprayed the vineyard for the first time

The grapes, Madeline Agevine (Pictured) along with Madeline Suyvaner and Mullet Thurgay were given to me by Roy Brich and earlier this year he came up with Ann and tenderly pruned them.

The spray os a soluble ?? sulphur supplied at very rerasonable cost by Bob Morton who is the Secretary of the Yorkshire Federation of Amateur Winemakers & Brewers

Unusually the wind was in the North East
