Back From Uni: Summer Pruning, Bransgore, Dorset - 25th July 1989

After the end of the fourth and final year of polytechnic, Nosher's back in Bransgore. Angela comes for a visit too, but because there's a load of building work going on at The Willows, Nosher and Angela end up in a tent somewhere else in Bransgore. Meanwhile, Hamish and Phil pitch in to help with a little summer pruning in Mother and Mike's vineyard - Harrow. It's not that common to get to work on a vineyard in England, so to be poking around amongst the Muller Thurgau, Bacchus and Seyval Blanc vines - often whilst listening to something suitably pastoral like Elgar on the Sony Walkman - is always pretty cool.
