I apologise if this comes up twice but I sent a mail and it seems to

I live on an old Cherry Orchard, indeed the next road is called Cherry
Close, and I have an old very well cropping tree in the garden. The only
problem is that the Black Bird grandparents must sit the youngsters on their
knee and tell them exactly when the tree will be cropping, I only ever
manage to get a few ripe cherries before the tree is stripped!
