Nets are off

How is it?

Took the nets off the vines. 24th April. Long grass.
Did a final rack of the merlot, Got two 1 gal demijohns.
A not to good year in the quanity but hopefully we will make up
for this in the quality.

Picked another two buckets of merlot grapes from the second fruit
set that occured this year. Brix 18.2. Alot of the bunches, most in fact, are suffering from wasp attack. Will make some grape jelly out of these.
Moira is in the garden taking out the last of the tomatoes. Picked a good lot of beetroot. Will
have these with dinner tonight. Lamb chops, 3 off, also some beans from our garden, out of the freezer.
Jaz jumped out the window to run after the kids.... They caught him and bought him back.
