They've got two more shows in Dolgellau tomorrow, they're in Machynlleth for ten days starting next week and then they're off around North and Mid Wales until the end of August.
If you get the chance to see them, do.

...(apples, plums, pears etc.) it seems wasteful. But it really helps the tree.
Ventilation is better so less risk of fungal disease.
The tree puts more energy into the remaining fruit - so larger and healthier...

...Thinning fruit means you get a good crop of big, healthy fruit every year (other environmental factors allowing).
It's time consuming and needs a bit of practice choosing which fruits to pick, but it's really worth it.

...There is less chance of branches breaking under the weight, especially with plums, but generally too.
You reduce the risk of biennial bearing - loads of fruit one year, almost nothing the next...

Another amazing show by Peregrine circus this year. Belly of the Whale. What a wonderfully exhilarating evening of thrills and excitement. All backed by amazing live music. Very highly recommended.

In praise of fruit thinning.
It's that time of year again. If you have fruit trees it's time to help the 'June drop' along and thin out your fruit.
I find it really difficult, because you take off so many little fruits...

Luckily, it was dry this morning after the terrible rain yesterday. Another week of running. It's a week until the Welsh exam and I'm feeling the stress. The running helps I think...

...I'm still going at whatever pace my body wants, there's plenty of time after the exam and other events of the coming weeks to go further, faster.

Yn lwcus, roedd hi'n sych bore'ma ar ôl y glaw ofnadwy ddoe. Wythnos arall o redeg. Mae o'n wythnos cyn yr arholiad Cymraeg a dwi'n teimlo y straen. Mae'r rhedeg yn helpu dwi'n meddwl...
