I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

My grandfather had a bungalow in Staines. He had a large orchard, raised chickens, and had a greenhouse with grapes inside. I think private growing was not as rare as you might expect.

We grew desert grapes in the open. They ripened in October.
