God,tinned peaches... it would be absolute purgatory. And I'm only half joking :mrgreen:



You must have had tinned fruit, otherwise you wouldn't have had any fruit when you were a kiddie. :ooer:


Oh do fuck off you moron, we grow, apples, pears, berries, currants, rhubarb, plums, gages, damsons, quince, medlars, peaches, nectarines, figs and grapes in this country FFS. :roll:



My nana grew much of the above in her garden, along with keeping chickens. She worked, too. Who would have the time for that now.

How can a guest call a guest a moron. BTW - Look in supermarkets - you hardly get homegrown these days. We grow peaches & nectarines?- never knew dat. I like pomegranates so will be buying from abroad.

As for stocking up? Nope, Just no...

It's quite easy to call the guest a moron. No fruit except in cans? :ooer: yes peaches and nectarines are grown in gardens down south in sheltered areas on the Gulf Stream, figs grow in many areas. Even when I was little we got pomegranates as a treat. I guess guest must have had tinned bananas. :ooer: I'm surprised at you, most of the soft fruit we eat in this country is grown in Scotland.

Lol The Romans grew vines in this country, even along Hadrians Wall. I guess our award winning sparkling wine is made with imported grapes then! Moron.

Back in the day when Cleo and many others here were kiddies, only seasonal fruit and veg were available from local greengrocers was available to the average family, none of the massive importation/distribution to the huge supermarkets within reach of most nowadays especially with there being so many more cars. :thumbsup:

Don't fear, I know what is grown here, but a lot aren't. You didn't get pomegranates grown here though...and how mass a market do we have in English figs?
