Nice documentation. I do not buy fruit and veg from across the ocean or from 
the southern hemisphere, so no Washington apples for me. But my friend in 
Almorad? just messaged me to say that her oranges are ready for picking?this 
is a month earlier than usual! Climate change is screwing up the seasons.

Cheers,
Nathan
