It`s conker time....

Remember when you were kids, climbing up to fill your pockets with conkers.
We used to chuck lumps of wood into the branches to bring them down and then risk being clobbered on the head by the same lump of wood on it`s downward journey.
You can`t even have a game of conkers now without wearing gloves and safety goggles....what a load of b******s.
Autumn is here, days of mellow fruitfulness...
