I didn’t mention it earlier, probably just out of embarrassment, but I have injured myself on the very eve of the harvest! To cut a very long story short I had a boating accident at the weekend, which not only damaged my spine, but has left me wearing a back brace. Not the most attractive piece of clothing that I have in my wardrobe. 

The irony of the whole thing is that I was actually out with friends doing some water skiing, but the accident that hurt me happened when we had finished skiing for the day, and we were heading back to shore.

I pride myself on keeping reasonably fit, and being so handicapped at this time of year is really a major blow. What’s the expression? There’s no fool like an old fool…..
