Aw bless........!


But you're right, this year has been bad for sweet chestnuts. I foraged for some last year and loads were the size of medium conkers!

Even the squiggles look peeved at the size........
I was born with nothing and have most of it left.

At the bottom my street there's lots of bigger nuts than them. At the top end are loads of duck-eggs!   ;D

Ahh I picked one of these up in the garden the other day and wondered what it was lol
I put it on the wall as I was on my way out and was going to pick it up when I got in but as I drove in the gate I saw a squirrel sat on the wall eating it :( It was HUUGE too...
